''Plato and Platonism'' is a comprehensive work by Walter Horatio Pater that delves into the philosophy and ideas of the ancient Greek philosopher Plato. Pater explores the various aspects of Plato’s philosophy, including his views on ethics, politics, aesthetics, and metaphysics. The book also discusses the influence of Plato’s ideas on later philosophers and thinkers, such as Plotinus and Neoplatonism. Pater’s writing style is both scholarly and accessible, making this book an ideal resource for anyone interested in the history of philosophy or the works of Plato.His devotion to the austere and abstract philosophy of Parmenides, its passivity or indifference, could not repress the opulent genius of Plato, or transform him into a cynic. Another ancient philosopher, Pythagoras, set the frozen waves in motion again, brought back to Plato’s recognition all that multiplicity in men’s experience to which Heraclitus had borne such emphatic witness; but as rhythm or melody now--in movement truly, but moving as disciplined sound and with the reasonable soul of music in it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
