Planned as an introduction to the exemplary life and thinking of Socrates in the form of an annotated edition (Greek-English) of those texts which Shaftesbury believed were authentic, (first of all Xenophon’s Socratic writings), the work ultimately remained a draft only. The notes published here for the first time do however make it clear that the Socrates book was conceived as a philosophical treatise. The work is particularly revealing for Shaftesbury’s own ›Socratick Philosophy‹. The book provides a detailed introduction, all the texts and helpful explanations.
