The ABD club: January 2006
http://theabdclub.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
A blog about Political Theory for graduate students. Sunday, January 29, 2006. My piece on the section on measure in Plato's Statesman. Is finally out in Plato: The Internet Journal of the International Plato Society. Link takes you to the table of contents). Not the most earth-shattering of arguments, perhaps: basically an attempt to show that the obscure "measure of the mean" discussed at Statesman. Was never very popular in the Platonic canon.

The ABD club: April 2006

A blog about Political Theory for graduate students. Monday, April 10, 2006. Aristotle's Politics: Critical Essays. There's a BMCR review here. Of a new book of essays on Aristotle's Politics. Is this a symptom of the inmense richness of Aristotle's thought, the radical indeterminacy of all interpretation that goes beyond pure textual clarification and minimal historical contextualization, or a problem with the question of "what is Aristotle's thought good for today"?

A blog about Political Theory for graduate students. Friday, March 31, 2006. I'm looking for support for an argument I'm trying to make, namely, that Plato wrote his dialogues as intellectual exercises for the reader (whether a member of the Academy or any reader). They are written, in other words, not to communicate positive knowledge but to help the reader to come to grips with a particular problem him/herself. Would anyone have suggestions about authors that make this argument? Posted by Emma @ 9:18 AM.
