Miller's writing is lucid and straightforward. . . . There are sustained discussions of Cornford, Cherniss, Vlastos, Owen, Brumbaugh, Allen, and Sayre in the footnotes. There is little doubt that the book represents a significant contribution.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e—Kenneth Seeskin \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Miller's commentary is an impressive achievement, combining extensive scholarship with unusual sensitivity to Plato's nuances, both literary and discursive. Both for its imaginative interpretation of the larger issues, and its careful analysis of the details, it will be of great value to anyone with an interest in this bewildering dialogue.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e—Kenneth Dorter \u003ci\u003eCanadian Philosophical Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penn State University","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51455974113623,"sku":"9780271028675","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780271028675.jpg?v=1755033273","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/platos-parmenides-9780271028675","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
