Books by Claudia Baracchi

A sensitive and original reading of Plato's Republic that foregrounds the power of myth in the shaping of history.

In this book, Claudia Baracchi demonstrates the indissoluble links between practical and theoretical wisdom in Aristotle's thinking. Baracchi shows how the theoretical is always informed by a set of practices, and specifically, how one's encounter with phenomena, the world, or nature in the broadest sense, is always a matter of ethos.
