Synopsis
An annotated and modified version of the translation published by Aris & Phillips Ltd. A model of accuracy and fluency, Christopher Rowe's translation of Statesman-as modified for publication in Plato, Complete Works (Hackett Publishing Co., 1997)-is now available in a student edition, with a brief introduction, notes, and a select bibliography.
Christopher Rowe is Professor of Greek, University of Durham, U.K.
Princeton University
The original publication of Rowe's translation in 1995 was a landmark event in the study of this fascinating but enigmatic dialogue. Based on a careful and convincing revised Greek text, the contemporary English of this unpretentious, clear, and-above all-accurate version [Hackett Publishing Co.] make it by far the best available. In fact, Rowe's translation is now and will surely remain the only acceptable choice." - John Cooper 0520200144
