The reader will find innovative approaches and a wide variety of topics, including a compelling introduction by the editors. The chapters cohere well with each other, despite their thematic variety. The volume offers important contributions, exemplifying some of the best scholarship to date, and provides a broad and rich discussion of the reception of Platonism in modern and contemporary Europe. In conclusion, the volume is a worthwhile addition to the subject's literature.
