Summary

Now available in paperback,The Quarrel Between Philosophy and Poetryfocuses on the theoretical and practical suppositions of the long-standing conflict between philosophy and poetry. Stanley Rosen one of the leading Plato scholars of our day examines philosophical activity, questioning whether technical philosophy is a species of poetry, a political program, an interpretation of human existence according to the ideas of nineteenth and twentieth-century thinkers, or a contemplation of beings and Being.
