"This volume is a landmark of how far the new wave in Socratic studies has traveled. At the same time, it presents an opportunity to assess how much of the remaining so-called Socratic problem resists dissolution. This will be a collection of interest to all scholars working in Socratic studies and a necessary addition to any research library." - Vincent Renzi, in: Bryn Mawr Classical Review, 2019.06.32"[T]hese essays offer much to the students of Xenophon, Plato and other Socratics. (...) Morrison provides a helpful index of places. The result well justifies the price." - David J. Murphy, in: CJ-Online, 2019.11.03 "[T]his volume, Plato and Xenophon, has the great merit of opening a number of paths to the investigation of the subject and overcoming a number of inadvisable simplifications, all that while an impressive 'Xenophon Renaissance' is flourishing." - Livio Rossetti, in: Scripta Classica Israelica 40, 2021
