'The first edition of this work now long out of print appeared over sixty years ago. Since then there has been no detailed commentary on the 'Republic' to supersede it. This reprinted edition is therefore most welcome. Dr. Rees has added an introduction which first relates Adams' views especially those on the metaphysical doctrine of the 'Republic' to the general tendencies of the Platonic scholarship of his day and then briefly surveys a few controversial passages in the light of more recent literature. Many obvious virtues of the commentary are unaffected by the passage of time. His notes on particles idioms metaphors and the like illustrated extensively by referenced to other dialogues and other Greek authors remain a valuable contribution to our understanding of the text. His wide scholarship and careful attention to detail are both reflected in ful explanatory notes on the numerous allusions in the 'Republic' to Greek poetry music religion and history. . It is principally in its philosophical interpretations and attitudes that the commentary shows its age. There is still much that is valuable in Adam's notes in this respect.'
