After Two Thousand Years: A Dialogue Between Plato and A Modern Young Man

A continuous dialogue between Plato and Philalethes, divided into two main themes; political and social institutions regarded as means; and those regarded as ends. G. Lowes Dickinson (1862-1932) was a pacifist during World War I, and he was later instrumental in the conception of the League of Nations. His political writings include The International Anarchy, 1904-1914 (1926). He is also known for The Greek View of Life (1896), a study of Hellenic society. "A noble piece of prose and a ... profoundly moving sequence of thought, especially as it moves in music to its close." - Ernest Barker in the Spectator
