The Art of Assemblage: Studies on Plato and Aristotle

The Art of Assemblage: Studies on Plato and Aristotle is a collection of twelve essays-six on Plato and six on Aristotle-written by an international group of eminent scholars. In recognition of the work of author, translator, and distinguished professor of philosophy C. D. C. Reeve, the essays address a wide range of topics-ethics and politics, poetics and rhetoric, and metaphysics-reflecting the breadth of Reeve's own scholarship. They exemplify how the "art of assemblage"-that is, the art of interpreting ancient Greek texts-can address some of the most intriguing questions posed by Plato and Aristotle. Together, they reveal continuities between Platonic and Aristotelian thought.
