1963Best.-Nr. 2304694New York: Union College 1963. Large Softcover. Near Fine. Very minor general wear. 1963 Large Softcover. 61 pp. Translated by Tayler Lewis Profeesor of Greek Union College 1849-1877. Edited by Wayne Somers. Introduction by Sven Peterson. "The Theaetetus is one of Plato's dialogues concerning the nature of knowledge written circa 369 BCE. In this dialogue Socrates and Theaetetus discuss three definitions of knowledge: knowledge as nothing but perception knowledge as true judgment and finally knowledge as a true judgment with an account. Each of these definitions is shown to be unsatisfactory. Socrates declares Theaetetus will have benefited from discovering what he does not know and that he may be better able to approach the topic in the future. The conversation ends with Socrates' announcement that he has to go to court to face a criminal indictment."--Wikipedia Union College paperback books
