Encounters and Reflections

the long version

"By turns wickedly funny and profoundly illuminating, Encounters and Reflections presents a captivating and unconventional portrait of the life and words of Seth Benardete. One of the leading scholars of ancient thought, Benardete here reflects on both the people he knew and the topics that fascinated him throughout his career in a series of candid, freewheeling conversations with Robert Berman, Ronna Burger and Michael Davis.". "The closest thing we will have to an autobiography of one of the twentieth century's leading intellectuals, Encounters and Reflections brings Benardete's thought to life to enlighten and inspire a new generation of thinkers."--BOOK JACKET.
