| Meer info | ?The beauty of ?The Trial of Socrates? is not so much any new facts that Stone?s investigative reporting might have uncovered (?), but the beauty of the crystalline language and style with which he reconstructs the ?missing case for the prosecution.? ?The Trial of Socrates? is a fitting conclusion to I.F. Stone?s writing career because it is, in fact, a study of the origins of freedom of thought and speech and the ancient challenge to them. (?) Stone (?) has provided us with a very readable, very knowledgeable, very penetrating, and even fair assessment of a figure in Western intellectual history whom he got to undressand within the framework of Athenian democratic history, but also an Athens, who despite its democracy, itself was indicted by executing its most famous critic. Still, we shall never know all that we would like to know about the elusive figure of a Socrates whose words and deeds will always be shrouded by those who knew him and those who wanted to know him.? (JOHN E. REXINE in Triceratops). |
