Leo Strauss (1899--1973) was born and educated in Germany, receiving his doctorate from Hamburg University in 1921. He came to the United States in 1938 and taught political science and philosophy at the New School for Social Research for a decade. He joined the faculty of the University of Chicago as professor of political philosophy in 1949 and was eventually named Robert Maynard Hutchins Distinguished Service Professor. Among his many books are The Political Philosophy of Hobbes; Natural Right and History; and Thoughts on Machiavelli, all of which are available from the University of Chicago Press.
"The City and Man" consists of provocative essays by the late Leo Strauss on Aristotle's "Politics, " Plato's "Republic," and Thucydides' "Peloponnesian Wars." Together, the essays constitute a brilliant attempt to use classical political philosophy as a means of liberating modern political philosophy from the strangehold of ideology. The essays are based on a long and intimate familiarity with the works, but the essay on Aristotle is especially important as one of Strauss's few writings on the philosopher who largely shaped Strauss's conception of antiquity. The essay on Plato is a full-scale discussion of Platonic political philosophy, wide in scope yet compact in execution. When discussing Thucydides, Strauss scceeds not only in presenting the historian as a moral thinker of high rank, but in drawing his thought into the orbit of philosophy, and thus indicating a relation of history and philosophy that does not presuppose the absorption of philosphy by history.

本文僅作第十一章On Plato's Republic分析 1、討論“反諷”。 施格勞斯提到蘇格拉底是一個反諷專傢,並因反諷而臭名昭著,他說,反諷是一種僞裝,是一種虛假,亞裏斯多德也說反諷是個壞毛病。事實上蘇格拉底的反諷是一種掩飾,但它不是對壞的行為或罪惡的僞裝,而是對...

圖書標籤: 政治哲學 施特勞斯 列奧·施特勞斯 柏拉圖 哲學 古希臘 Strauss 亞裏士多德
相對更喜歡講修昔底德那部分,外加柏拉圖那部分中莫名的幽默感 | 不明白為什麼這本書的中譯到現在還沒齣?
評分令人嘆服……
評分理想國那篇真的很精彩。但不太喜歡他對亞裏士多德的解釋。
評分wordy and boring
評分施特勞斯有一點跟海德格爾很像,即使你覺得讀的時候有無窮無盡的啓發,但讀完之後你發現根本沒懂這本書
