This book will help you to understand Badiou's central concepts, the philosophical relation between Badiou and Plato and will rethink the importance of Badiou's 'Platonic' claim that 'the only education is an education by truths'.
An interrogation of Plato''s entire work using the concepts and categories of Alain Badiou. This is the first book to critically address and draw consequences from Badiou''s claim that his work is a ''Platonism of the multiple'' and that philosophy today requires a ''platonic gesture''. Examining the relationship between Badiou and Plato, Bartlett radically transforms our perception of Plato''s philosophy and rethinks the central philosophical question: ''what is education?''
