- More about Plato's Exceptional City, Love, and Philosopher
This book explores Plato's concept of the exceptional, such as erotic desire, the good city, and the philosopher, and offers fresh and radical interpretations of these dialogues. It demonstrates that these elements of experience do not escape embodiment but rather occupy the same world that contains lamentable versions of each. Pappas' investigations point beyond the fates of these particular exceptions to broader conclusions about Plato's world.

This book explores the appearances of the exceptional in Plato's works, including erotic desire, the good city, and the philosopher. It offers fresh and sometimes radical interpretations of these dialogues, challenging traditional interpretations. Pappas argues that these exceptional elements of experience are not separate from the ordinary but rather occupy the same world. He seeks to intensify the concepts and experiences we normally think with, leading to broader conclusions about Plato's world.
This book will be of interest to readers of Plato and ancient philosophy more broadly. It offers a new perspective on these important themes and encourages further exploration of Plato's works.
