Just the word "bankruptcy" sends such a negative message to many people that they cannot face up to their personal and financial responsibility. For years, they will live in misery trying to manage financial obligations that are simply beyond their means. The myth of bankruptcy is that people greedily spend thousands more than they can ever hope to repay, and with a cynical glee, seek the protection of the courts to the dismay of their creditors.

The third volume of Professor Guthrie’s great history of Greek thought, entitled The Fifth-Century Enlightenment, deals in two parts with the Sophists and Socrates, the key figures in the dramatic and fundamental shift of philosophical interest from the physical universe to man. Each of the two parts is available as a paperback with the text, bibliography and indexes amended where necessary so that each part is self-contained.

In one of his last books, Socrates and Aristophanes, Leo Strauss’s examines the confrontation between Socrates and Aristophanes in Aristophanes’ comedies. Looking at eleven plays, Strauss shows that this confrontation is essentially one between poetry and philosophy, and that poetry emerges as an autonomous wisdom capable of rivaling philosophy."Strauss gives us an impressive addition to his life’s work—the recovery of the Great Tradition in political philosophy. The problem the book proposes centers formally upon Socrates. As is typical of Strauss, he raises profound issue
