Der Zweite Alkibiades

The studies on the pseudo-Platonic Alkibiades II presented here consist primarily of extensive research on the sources. On the one hand works from the 4th century BC were used as sources for Alkibiades II (Plato, Antisthenes), on the other hand it attacks contemporary philosophical rivals: the Stoa of Zenon of Kition and the Peripatos of the time. Thus the pseudo-Platonic dialogue is to be connected with the Academy at the time of Polemon.
