Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 25The following pages contain only a negative and partial criticism Of the interpretation Of Plato put forward by Dr Jackson under the above title in earlier volumes Of this Journal. The same interpretation appears also, with certain modifications, in Mr Archer Hind's editions Of the Phaedo and Timaeus. My criticism is directed against one part of it only, though that a central and perhaps vital part: but I must endeavour in the first place to give brie¿y a general summary Of the later theory as conceived by Dr Jackson'. I do so for the sake Of clearness, and in order to recall the main points to those already familiar with them, rather than in the attempt to make a very intricate piece Of argument intelligible to any readers to whom it is here presented for the first time.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
