Xanthippe, a comedy

By Gregory E Mantell

Book Overview

An irreverent look at the stormy marriage of Socrates and Xanthippe. A comic dialog, an anti-dialog--a parody of Plato's Symposium and Plato's dialogs in general. By challenging Plato's portrayal of Socrates, Xanthippe seeks to raise a larger philosophical issue about the value of philosophy itself.
