"Although it was influential for several hundred years after it first appeared, doubts
about the authenticity of the Platonic Alcibiades I have unnecessarily impeded its
interpretation ever since. It positions itself firmly within the Platonic and Socratic
traditions, and should therefore be approached in the same way as most other Platonic
dialogue. It paints a vivid portrait of a Socrates in his late thirties tackling the
unrealistic ambitions of the youthful Alcibiades, urging him to come to know himself
and to care for himself. François Renaud and Harold Tarrant re-examine the drama and
philosophy of Alcibiades I with an eye on those interpreters who cherished it most.
Modern scholars regularly play down one or more of the religious, erotic, philosophic
or dramatic aspects of the dialogue, so ancient Platonist interpreters are given special
consideration. This rich study will interest a wide range of readers in ancient philosophy"
