1937réf. 521New York: Random House 1937. Hardback. Very good. If you want to understand Western—indeed world—philosophy you have to get a handle on Plato and if you want to get a handle on Plato you have to read his “Dialogues.” This handy two-volume yet unabridged edition of what was originally a five-volume translation is a good way to do that. Current students say it that it still stands up despite being well over a hundred years old. Benjamin Jowett—Regius Professor of Greek at Oxford University clergyman theologian university AND Indian Civil Service administrator and reformer and great friend of Florence Nightingale—continually revised his original work and indeed this version of his translation which originally came out in 1892 just a year before his death was actually his third edition. By the time our copy was published in 1937 MacMillan had originally published the 1892 version and the Oxford University Press had renewed its own copyright in 1920. Random House in fact says the two-volume edition is published “by special arrangement” with the Oxford publishing house. What makes this edition different than Jowett’s original besides the size is that it includes his own notes in the margins as well as Plato’s words so that readers get a commentary on Plato while they read Plato himself. They also get an fresh introduction by Ralph Raphael Demos professor of philosophy at Harvard written especially for the Random House release. The second volume ends with an index to the complete set that runs to 116 pages long. Both of our two volumes are structurally sound and show little in the way of aging one might expect in books 88 years old. The binding is in excellent condition and perfectly tight and square with no loose or missing pages. In fact the pages themselves have no writing or notes or tears and though they show some general tanning as is normal for their age are actually quite bright. There is even surprisingly little shelfwear to the dark red buckram covers with only a little scuffing to the corners and the top and bottom of the spine. The title translator’s name and Random House’s colophon are stamped in gilt on a black background over the dark red buckram spine and still show up nicely; however the color of the fabric on the spine is slightly faded and that means the stamping of the publisher’s name and volume number at the bottom has also faded. These volumes come from the personal library of a former headmaster of Chauncey Hall School and the name of the school is stamped at the top and bottom of the text blocks of each volume. His name and a small doodle are written on the front pastedown of each book and there are the barely perceptible remains of where a bookplate was removed on the front flysheets.

First and only edition of detailed account of the Lotus case an international legal case involving France and Turkey in front of the Permanent Court of International Justice compiled by Spanish judge Altavira y Crevea and translated by Turkish Distinguished Professor of International Law Menemenlizâde Edhem 1878-1965. The case is known for establishing the so-called "Lotus principle" in international law says that sovereign states may act in any way they wish so long as they do not contravene an explicit prohibition. The Bozkurt-Lotus case decided by the Permanent Court of International Justice PCIJ in 1927 became a landmark in international law especially regarding issues of jurisdiction and the extent of a state's rights to assert criminal jurisdiction over foreign nationals. The case arose from the collision between the S.S. Lotus a French vessel and the S.S. Bozkurt a Turkish ship near the Greek island of Mytilene on 2 August 1926. After the collision eight Turkish nationals aboard the Bozkurt drowned. In response Turkey arrested and charged the captain of the Lotus Captain Demons for causing the deaths and damages to the Turkish vessel. The Turkish courts condemned him asserting their right to try him for the incident even though the collision occurred in international waters and involved a French ship. France contested the jurisdiction of Turkish courts over the captain arguing that Turkey could not claim the right to prosecute a foreign national for actions committed on a foreign vessel in international waters. France brought the case before the PCIJ to challenge Turkey's legal authority. The court ruled in favour of Turkey emphasizing that under international law there was no general prohibition against a state asserting jurisdiction over crimes involving foreign nationals even when the incident occurred outside its territorial waters. The PCIJ's decision established the principle that absent an explicit prohibition in international law states are free to exercise jurisdiction in cases where they have a legitimate interest even if the matter involves foreign nationals and occurred in international waters. This judgment reinforced the notion of state sovereignty in determining jurisdiction and highlighted the extent to which international law permits states to assert legal authority over incidents involving foreign nationals under certain conditions. However it also raised important questions about extraterritorial jurisdiction and the balance between state sovereignty and international cooperation in legal matters. "The Lotus principle or Lotus approach usually considered a foundation of international law says that sovereign states may act in any way they wish so long as they do not contravene an explicit prohibition. The application of this principle - an outgrowth of the Lotus case - to future incidents raising the issue of jurisdiction over people on the high seas was changed by article 11 of the Convention on the High Seas. The convention held in Geneva in 1958 laid emphasis on the fact that only the flag state or the state of which the alleged offender was a national had jurisdiction over sailors regarding incidents occurring on the high seas." Wikipedia. It is the first legal Turkish success achieved in the international arena after the proclamation of the Republic. Karakus. In court the Turkish side was represented by Mahmut Esat Bozkurt who was the Minister of Justice at the time. When Turkey adopted the formal surname system in 1934 Mahmut Esat chose the surname "Bozkurt" as a reminder of the landmark case. Sources: Karakus H.Burak. 2013.
