"Thomas Pangle continues his exploration of the work of Xenophon, a student of Socrates and a historian, who wrote about Socrates, the man, his ideas, and their reception in Athens. In a sequel to his earlier account of Xenophon's 'Memorabilia', this book takes up the three remaining works of Xenophon, which were devoted to memorializing his teacher Socrates : 'the Oeconomicus', 'the Symposium', and 'the Apology of Socrates to the Jury'. As Pangle puts it, the question that is the theme of these works is which of the two distinct ways of life and human character types - that of the Socratic political philosopher with his philosophic virtues, or that of the gentleman with his civic and moral virtues - is superior, standing as the highest standard for all human existence."-- Provided by publisher
