520 |a Socrates presented the philosopher king as both a perplexing innovation and a political aspiration, creating a fascinating philosophical puzzle and an enticing political challenge that endures today. Through a series of diverse studies, ranging from the prophet, intellectual, artist, advisor, scientist and ‘the people’, this book explores contemporary attempts to combine wisdom and power to secure justice. Haig Patapan provides a contextual analysis of whether and how philosophy and politics can be mutually salutary, revealing the extent to which wisdom can be empowered and power ennobled.
