PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Francis K. Peddle is professor of philosophy at Dominican University College, Ottawa, Canada.
"""Francis K. Peddle's In Philebum gives us an original and masterful reading of Plato's Philebus. This dialectical pathway to speculative philosophy is a welcome departure from the influential dialogical ethics of Hans-Georg Gadamer and Donald Davidson of the last century. The evocation of Renaissance Platonist Marsilio Ficino suggests further thought on order by means of four. I hope so. This work is a stellar contribution to Foro di Studi Avanzati, a delightful series of studies in philosophy."" --Craig Cramm, lecturer and adjunct professor of philosophy, Memorial University of Newfoundland & Labrador ""At the root of Francis K. Peddle's reflections on Plato's Philebus lies the thesis that this late dialogue is fundamentally an outline of an integrated onto-cosmology that provides a detailed framework for the good life. The individual, understood as a complex of measure-relations, is given a thoroughgoing firmament in the Philebus for achievement in the arts and sciences as well as a roadmap for a balanced practical ethics. In Philebum adds significantly to the tradition of philosophical interpretation of this extraordinarily rich dialogue."" --Mark Nyvlt, North American director, Foro di Studi Avanzati"
