=Socrates.=
A Translation of the Apology, Crito, and parts of the Phædo
of Plato. An introduction by Professor W. W. Goodwin, of
Harvard University. 1 vol., 12mo. A new and cheaper edition,
paper, 50 cents.
This volume offers a new translation of the parts of Plato
which are most essential to an understanding of the personal
character and the moral position of Socrates, and includes
a famous specimen of Plato’s own speculations on one of the
grandest subjects.
“We do not, at the moment, remember any translation of a
Greek author which is a better specimen of idiomatic English
than this, or a more faithful rendering of the real spirit
of the original into English as good and as simple as the
Greek.”—_N. Y. Evening Post._
