Reviews
Ellen Wagner has compiled a superb collection of essays, in which leading scholars examine Plato's views on the nature, structure, and immortality of the soul. With an illuminating introduction and extensive bibliography, this is an invaluable companion for all students of Plato's psychology -- Fred D. Miller, Jr., Bowling Green State University
Wagner's volume, both as a whole and in its parts, will be an important resource for teachers and students; as she points out at the beginning of her level-headed introduction, this is-surprisingly, for so important and well-populated a subject-the first anthology of pieces on Plato's psychology; and it brings together some of the best. * Phronesis *
There have been monographs on the subject before, but this is the era of the scholarly essay, and there has never been an anthology like this. It is extremely welcome. * The Heythrop Journal *
Ellen Wagner gives us an excellent introduction to the importance and the complexity of Plato's psychology in bringing together, in a focussed and illuminating way, the best articles written on the subject in recent years. Any student of Plato's thought will benefit from this collection. -- Julia Annas, University of Arizona
