Philosophy as Agon: A Study of Plato’s Gorgias and Related Texts - Rereading Ancient Philosophy
Robert Metcalf
Offers a fresh interpretation of Plato's dialogues as dramatic texts whose philosophy is not so much a matter of doctrine as it is a dynamic, non-dogmatic, and open-ended practice of engaging others in agonistic dialogue. Robert Metcalf argues that Plato understands philosophy as essentially agonistic.
