Rezension zu „Philosopher-Kings of Antiquity “
Summarized. New Testament Abstracts Since the publication of his prize-winning The Greek Praise of Poverty, William Desmond has been recognized as one of the most insightful scholars currently active in the study of ancient ethics. Philosopher-Kings of Antiquity is a worthy addition to Desmond's oeuvre. A thoughtful and erudite analysis of the concept of the philosopher-king from its Platonic origins to the modern era, it will be of much value both to specialists in ancient philosophy and to those interested in broader questions of intellectual and cultural history. -- Thomas R. Keith, University of Chicago Bryn Mawr Classical Review 20130905
