Plato and the Older Academy is a book written by Eduard Zeller that explores the philosophical teachings of Plato and his followers in the Academy of Athens. The book examines the development of Plato's ideas and the evolution of the Academy during the period between Plato's death and the emergence of the New Academy under Carneades. Zeller delves into the works of Plato's immediate successors, including Speusippus, Xenocrates, and Polemon, and analyzes their contributions to Platonic philosophy. The book also explores the political and social context in which the Academy operated, including the influence of the Macedonian kings on Athenian intellectual life. Overall, Plato and the Older Academy provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of one of the most important schools of philosophy in ancient Greece.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
