This book reconstructs the impact of Platos words for the modern reader. In the Republic, Plato presented his schematization of human intellectual development, and called for collaboration between writer and reader. The response presented in this book results in a new theoretical framework for engaging with Platos dialogues. Susanna Saracco analyzes the epistemic function of Platos written words and explores Platos higher order pedagogy, in which students are not mere learners and teachers are not the depositories of the truth.
