Plato’s Reverent City
The Laws and the Politics of Authority
Ballingall, Robert A.
Plato’s Reverent City
This book offers an original interpretation of Plato’s Laws and a new account of its enduring importance. Ballingall argues that the republican regime conceived in the Laws is built on „reverence,“ an archaic virtue governing emotions of self-assessment—particularly awe and shame.
