This is an English translation of Plato&;s Socratic dialogue attempting to achieve a definition of virtue that applies equally to all particular virtues and serves as a great introduction to Socratic dialogues. It contains a short introduction, notes, standard Stephanus numbers, speech numbers, and an appendix containing a unique gallery of step-by-step geometrical diagrams. It also includes illustrations, a bibliography, and a glossary.

Focus Philosophical Library translations are close to and are non-interpretative of the original text, with the notes and a glossary intending to provide the reader with some sense of the terms and the concepts as they were understood by Plato&;s immediate audience.

Industry Reviews

This new translation of the Meno by Anastaplo and Berns has several distinctive features that make it useful for teaching and studying the dialogue. Generally achieving a balance between clarity and faithfulness, it includes valuable annotation, two appendices...and an innovative division of the text through the provision of numbers for each of it's speeches... the overall result is a text that would give a reader unschooled in Greek a fairly reliable sense of the flow of ideas in the original. -- William A. Welton, Loyola College, Review of Metaphysic, Vol. LVIII, No. 4, June 200
