Informationen zum Autor Andrea Tschemplik is associate professor of philosophy and religion at American University and teaches a variety of courses in the history of philosophy, as well as thematic courses such as the philosophy of love and friendship. She is the author of Knowledge and Self-Knowledge in Plato's Theaetetus, the editor and translator of Plato, The Republic: The Comprehensive Student Edition, and the translator of published selections from Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit. Klappentext Knowledge and Self-Knowledge in Plato's "Theaetetus" examines the dialogue in conversation with others, arriving at the conclusion that it is the absence of self-knowledge in the Theaetetus which leads to its closing impasse regarding knowledge. What Socrates accomplishes in the dialogue is to lead the mathematician Theaetetus to the recognition of his ignorance-the first step toward self-knowledge.
