Note 73 — Chapter XXI · EUTHYDEMUS.
Reading edition
Stallbaum, Proleg. ad Euthyd. p. 47; Winckelmann. Proleg. p. xxxv.
Heindorf, in endeavouring to explain the difference between Plato’s language in the Phædrus and in the Euthydêmus respecting Isokrates, assumes as a matter beyond question the theory of Schleiermacher, that the Phædrus was composed during Plato’s early years. I have already intimated my may dissent from this theory.
