Rezensionen

"This book is essential reading for anyone interested in Gorgias' ideas and relationship to philosophy as well as those keen to see how modern philosophical discourse may generate a fruitful dialogue with ancient texts whose relationship to the philosophical tradition may be opaque and problematic." - Bryn Mawr Classical Review
