Platonism for the Iron Age : an essay on the literary universal /

The present book is a study of Platonic idealism as it can play out in daily life. It buttresses its defense of the Platonic through reference both to Classical Greek and eighteenth-century thought, and to language in the pressure cooker of the American street.
