内容简介

　　PLATO HAD a love-hate relationship with the arts.He must have had some love for the arts，and his influence on western culture generally is a very strong one，and this includes a strong influence on the arts，and on theories of art.

　　Beauty，Justice，and Circle are all examples of what Plato called Forms or Ideas.For Plato，these Forms are perfect Ideals，but they are also more real than physical objects.He called them"the Really Real"，so art is imitation，and the best human life is one that strives to understand and to imitate the Forms as closely as possible.

　　在西方，柏拉图一项被称作哲学家中的哲学家。柏拉图散见于各篇对话中有关艺术及美学方面的论述是西方美学和文艺学的重要源头，举凡《理想国》有关艺术功用的探讨；《大希庇阿斯篇》有关美与形式、质料之间的关系的论述；《会宴篇》有关美的本质的对话，并断言美是一种先验的绝对理式，“是永恒的，无始无终的，不生不灭、不增不减的。一切美的事物都以它为源泉，有了它，那一切美的事物才成其为美”，首次将人类的审美活动上升到哲学层面来考量。凡此种种，都为后世的美学家解决审美体验、美的本质等问题开了无数方便法门。

　　本书所选各篇均配有英国著名古典学家本·乔伊特撰写的导言，既对占希腊社会生活概貌有生动的介绍，又清晰地勾勒出柏拉图学说的基本构架，十分有益f初学者入门。

 

作者介绍

　　PLATO（424/423 BC-348/347 BC），was a Classical Greek philosopher，mathematician，student of Socrates，writer of philosophical dialogues，and founder of the

　　Academy in Athens，the first institution of higher earning in the Western world，just as A.N.Whitehead says：

　　The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato，I do not mean the systematic scheme of thought which scholars have doubtfully extracted from his writings，I allude to the wealth of general ideas scattered through them.

　　Plato's dialogues have been used to teach a range of subjects，including philosophy，logic，educes，rhetoric，and mathematics.

文 摘

　　The division into books，like all similar divisions，is probably later than the age of Plato.The natural divisions are five in number;-（l）Book I and the first half of Book II down to the paragraph beginning，'I had always admired the genius of Glaucon and Adeimantus，'which is introductory;the first book containing a refutation of the popular and sophistical notions of justice，and concluding，like some of the earlier Dialogues，without arriving at any definite result.To this is appended a restatement of the nature of justice according to common opinion，and an answer is demanded to the question-What is justice，stripped of appearances?The second division（2）includes the remainder of the second and the whole of the third and fourth books，which are mainly occupied with the construction of the first State and the first education.

　　The third division（3）consists of the fifth，sixth，and seventh books，in which philosophy rather than justice is the subject of inquiry，and the second State is constructed on principles of communism and ruled by philosophers，and the contemplation of the idea of good takes.the place of the social and political virtues.In the eighth and ninth books（4）the perversions of States and of the individuals who correspond to them are reviewed in succession;and the nature of pleasure and the principle of tyranny are further analyzed in the individual man.

　　The tenth book（5）is the conclusion of the whole，in which the relations of philosophy to poetry are finally deternuned，and the happiness of the citizens in this life，which has now been assured，is crowned by the vision of another.
