Plato seasons his philosophical dialogues with self-contained, fantastical narratives that we usually label his 'myths'. This volume focuses on the ways in which a number of Plato's most famous myths are interwoven with his philosophy. It also contains seventeen rare Renaissance illustrations of Platonic myths.
