The contributions cover a wide variety of topics, ranging from the literary form of the work to the ontology of sense perception and the status of medicine in Timaeus' account. Although informed by a commitment to methodological diversity, the collection as a whole forms an organic unity, opening fresh perspectives on widely read passages, while shedding new light on less frequently discussed topics. The volume thus provides a valuable resource for students and researchers at all levels, whether their interest bears on the Timaeus as a whole or on a particular passage"--Provided by publisher ; "The papers collected in this volume were originally presented within the framework of the Tenth Symposium Platonicum Pragense, which was held in Prague from November 12th to 14th, 2015"--Pref.
