BIBLIOGRAPHY

The first volume of W. B. Tennemann's System der pla-
tonischen Philosophie
(Leipzig, 1792-95) includes a critical
bibliography. Heinrich von Stein, Sieben Bücher zur Ge-
schichte des Platonismus
(Göttingen, 1862-75) pays atten-
tion to Platonism as well as to Platonic research. Platonism
in literature is stressed by Paul Shorey, Platonism, ancient
and modern, Sather Lectures,
Vol. XIV (Berkeley, 1938).

(1950-1957),” Lustrum, 4 (1959), and 5 (1960); A. Diès,
