Myth is one aspect of this relation whose importance for the study of Plato is only now beginning to be recognized. Reflection on this topic is essential not only for understanding Plato?s conception of philosophy and its methods, but also for understanding more broadly the relation between philosophy and literature. The twenty chapters of this volume, contributed by scholars of diverse backgrounds and approaches, elucidate the various uses and statuses of Platonic myths in the first place by reflecting on myth per se and in the second place by focusing on a specific myth in the Platonic corpus. 410 0$aMnemosyne, Supplements$v337. 606 $aScience$xPhilosophy 606 $aPhilosophy 606 $aScience 606 $aPHILOSOPHY / History & Surveys / Ancient & Classical$2bisacsh 615 0$aScience$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aPhilosophy. 615 0$aScience. 615 7$aPHILOSOPHY / History & Surveys / Ancient & Classical 676 $a184 686 $a6,12$2ssgn 686 $aFH 28715$2rvk 700 $aCollobert$b Catherine$0778938 701 $aDestre?e$b Pierre$0947354 701 $aGonza?lez$b Francisco J$0612592 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996237249403316 996 $aPlato and myth$92562369 997 $aUNISA
