Abstract

This essay is intended to raise, rather than answer, a number of questions thought pertinent to a more adequate understanding of the "meno" as a whole. These questions are grouped under the headings drama, dialogue, and dialectic, the last of these groups being the largest and most articulated. Kinds of goodness, kinds of ruling, levels of discussion, the intrusion of mathematical examples, etc., Are topics of these questions, most of which have been treated rather more sporadically than the complexities of the "meno" would appear to encourage
