Proclus: Commentary on Plato's 'Republic', Volume 2 (Essays 7-15)
Book information
Description
The commentary on Plato's Republic by Proclus (d. 485 CE), which takes the form of a series of essays, is the only sustained treatment of the dialogue to survive from antiquity. This three-volume edition presents the first complete English translation of Proclus' text, together with a general introduction that argues for the unity of Proclus' Commentary and orients the reader to the use which the Neoplatonists made of Plato's Republic in their educational program. Each volume is completed by a Greek word index and an English-Greek glossary that will help non-specialists to track the occurrence of key terms throughout the translated text. The second volume of the edition presents Proclus' essays on the tripartite soul and the virtues, female philosopher rulers, and the metaphysics and epistemology of the central books of the Republic. The longest of the essays in Volume II interprets the nature and significance of the 'marriage number' whose miscalculation leads to the degeneration of the ideal city-state. 03.0_pp_iv_iv_Copyright_page 04.0_pp_v_vi_Dedication 05.0_pp_vii_viii_Contents 06.0_pp_ix_x_Acknowledgements 07.0_pp_xi_xiv_Note_on_the_Text_and_Translation 08.0_pp_1_14_General_Introduction 09.0_pp_15_331_On_the_Republic_of_Plato_Essays_715 09.1_pp_17_33_Introduction_to_Essay_7 09.2_pp_34_69_Proclus_the_Successor_on_the_demonstrations_in_the_fourth_book_of_the_Republic_on_the_three_parts_of 09.3_pp_70_82_Introduction_to_Essays_8_and_9 09.4_pp_83_103_236_Concerning_the_arguments_in_the_fifth_book_of_the_Republic_showing_the_virtues_and_education_of_ 09.5_pp_104_115_251_An_examination_of_the_arguments_of_Theodore_of_Asine_that_render_virtue_the_same_for_men_and_wom 09.6_pp_116_125_Introduction_to_Essay_10 09.7_pp_126_139_258_On_the_discussion_in_the_Fifth_Book_of_the_Republic_demonstrating_what_kind_the_love_of_5_learni 09.8_pp_140_148_Introduction_to_Essay_11 09.9_pp_149_168_269On_the_Discussion_in_the_Republic_Demonstrating_What_the_Good_Is 09.10_pp_169_175_Introduction_to_Essay_12 09.11_pp_176_188_287On_the_Cave_in_the_Seventh_Book_of_Republic 09.12_pp_189_201_Introduction_to_Essay_13 09.13_pp_202_306_1_By_Proclus_the_Lycian_Diadochus_of_the_Platonic_School 09.14_pp_307_313_Introduction_to_Essays_14_and_15 09.15_pp_314_318_81_On_the_Three_Arguments_Showing_that_the_Just_Life_is_Happier_than_the_Unjust 09.16_pp_319_331_84The_major_sections_of_the_Tenth_Book 10.0_pp_332_340_References 11.0_pp_341_369_EnglishGreek_Glossary 12.0_pp_370_416_Greek_Word_Index 13.0_pp_417_420_General_Index

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
