Product description

From the Publisher

The second volume in the Prometheus Trust's Thomas Taylor
Series, this is a quality hardback, sewn, and bound in purple library
buckram with gold blocking. The Prometheus Trust has produced all of the
writings and translations of Thomas Taylor in this classic series, often
adding many useful cross references, standard line numbering, and
explanatory notes. The Series presents the works of Taylor in a clear
modern typeface, and is not a poor quality facsimile editon.

The translator, Thomas Taylor (1858-1835), should be considered as one of
the giants of western philosophy - certainly no modern translator has been
so immersed in thought of ancient Platonic philosophy. He was, it is said,
"a scholar and a mystic" and not only provided the backbone to the American
transcendentalist school, but also inspired the whole English romantic
movement.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I was born in 1986 in Solihull, England. I have grew up and been educated in Solihull.

I have a 3 year old daughter, who inspires my work. I have always been a fan of drawing and writing or anything creative for that matter. My main ambition is to become a well known author.

Some of my books include Pookey The Mousepig, Pookey The Mousepig The Backyard Rainforest and Pregnancy Diaries One Man's Perspective.

I have had a poem published in an anthology of poems in hardback. It is called Future voices from Solihull. It was published in 2000. Since then I have left senior school and worked jobs I haven't enjoyed. I have found my vocation with writing and I am hoping it will blossom into a successful career.
