Abstract:
Ancient critics reproached Xenocrates for beginning his work on the dialectic with a discussion of voice, and until now the question why he did so has never been systematically explored. Neither do we know why Xenocrates counted syllables, as Plutarch reports, and how he arrived at such an implausibly high number. In the first part of this paper, I show that Xenocrates’ interest in voice was suggested by Plato’s discussion of letters in his later dialogues, such as the Theatetus, the Sophist, the Statesman, and the Philebus. Second, a fragment from Sextus attributed to Xenocrates confirms that

Abstract:
In the second century of our era the Athenian Platonist, Atticus, claimed that it was clear not only to philosophers but perhaps even to ordinary people that the heritage left by Plato was the immortality of the soul. Plato had expounded the doctrine in various and manifold ways (ποικίλως καì παντοίως) and this was about (σχεδόν) the only thing holding together the Platonic school. Atticus is but one witness to the prominence accorded the soul in discussions and debates among later Platonists. But while questions concerning the origin, constitution, and destiny of the human soul are relatively

Abstract:
This paper concerns three chief aspects of Xenocrates’ exegetical activity as head of the Platonic Academy, his interpretation of certain key passages of Plato, his appropriation of Pythagoras and the Pythagorean tradition, and his exegesis of the poets, notably Homer, Hesiod and the Orphic poems, thus setting the stage for later developments in Platonism.

Abstract:
The paper offers a Russian translation of the portion of the “History of the philosophers” by Philodemus, available in two Herculaneum papyri (PHerc. 1021 and PHerc. 164), which deals with the history of the Old Academy (col. V–XVI, and some supplements). This important source, translated and commented in the article, highlights the most interesting biographical details of the heirs of Plato, Speusippus, Xenocrates, Polemo, Crates, and Crantor, whose activity ranges from 347 to 274 BCE.

Abstract:
AbstractThe paper firstly focuses on a rare vox, that is, the verb μετίσχω, as a new finding in two different sources: the Π text of Methaphysics Lambda 1075b19 and the “Ai Khanoum philosophical papyrus” (not only at column II.9, but arguably at II.11 and IV.8–9 as well). Using the verb μετίσχω testifies for a “2.0 version” of the theory of ideas, in a subsequent phase to Plato’s Parmenides. Xenocrates is likely to have played a role. This suggests a deeper connection than previously thought between Aristotelian theories and Plato’s Academy.

Abstract:
Abstract The chapter gathers and carefully assesses evidence on the use of the dialogue by Plato’s successors in the Academy. Plato established the dialogue as the philosophical genre, providing his successors with an approved model of philosophy. The first section discusses evidence for the employment of the dialogue format by Plato’s students and early successors, including Heraclides of Pontus, Speusippus, Eudoxus of Cnidus, and Xenocrates, and inspects testimonies and fragments of Crantor of Soli. The subsequent section discusses changes in the dialogue format in the New Academy of Arcesilaus and his successors, who introduced new forms of oral and written discourse, suitable for skeptical reasoning—a thesis proposed by a student, followed by a refutation by a philosopher-teacher, either with or without the former’s interventions.

Abstract:
Abstract On his return from Sicily, Plato founded his school, the Academy. This chapter explains where it was, distinguishing between the Academy district, the Academy park, the Academy gymnasium, and Plato’s Academy school. The Academy was both a teaching school and a research establishment. People were attracted there by Plato’s fame and by reading his dialogues. It was not the first higher-educational establishment in Athens, its main rival being one set up by Isocrates. The chapter discusses the main trends of the work and teaching that was carried on in the Academy, focusing on its five most famous alumni: Eudoxus, Aristotle, Speusippus, Xenocrates, and Heraclides Ponticus. This discussion shows the range of topics and approaches that went on in the Academy—and also that it was in no way a school for the perpetuation of Platonism because the senior scholars often disagreed with him. Plato’s role in the Academy is described, including his infamous public lecture “On the Good.” The chapter concludes by showing that the Academy also turned out international political troubleshooters.
