Abstract

Abstract:

In the Phaedrus, Plato provides an intriguing dramatic detail immediately before Socrates's first speech. "I shall veil myself to speak," Socrates declares, "so that I may run through the speech as quickly as possible and may not be at a complete loss from a sense of shame as I look towards you." In this essay, I argue that Socrates's veiling illustrates how authors of dialogic literature about philosophical topics subtly use dramatic and literary details to suggest preferred philosophical takeaways.

柏拉图《费德鲁斯篇》的隐晦意义:作为哲学思考指南的戏剧性细节
摘要:在《费德鲁斯篇》中,柏拉图在苏格拉底第一次演讲之前提供了一个有趣的戏剧性细节。“我要把自己遮起来讲话,”苏格拉底宣称,“这样我就可以尽可能快地完成演讲,而不会在我看着你们的时候因为羞愧而完全不知所措。”在这篇文章中,我认为苏格拉底的面纱说明了关于哲学主题的对话文学的作者如何巧妙地使用戏剧和文学细节来建议首选的哲学要点。

期刊介绍: For more than a quarter century, Philosophy and Literature has explored the dialogue between literary and philosophical studies. The journal offers a constant source of fresh, stimulating ideas in the aesthetics of literature, theory of criticism, philosophical interpretation of literature, and literary treatment of philosophy. Philosophy and Literature challenges the cant and pretensions of academic priesthoods by publishing an assortment of lively, wide-ranging essays, notes, and reviews that are written in clear, jargon-free prose. In his regular column, editor Denis Dutton targets the fashions and inanities of contemporary intellectual life.
