Kingship and Legislation in Plato’s Statesman

Résumé

One of the main philosophical outcomes of Plato’s Statesman is to define statesmanship as a prescriptive ( epitactic ) form of knowledge, exercising control over subordinate tekhnai . Against a widespread scholarly view according to which the Statesman offers a radically critical view of laws, this paper argues that the art of legislation ( nomothetikē ) has pride of place among these subordinate arts which also include rhetoric, strategy, the art of the judge and education.
