Status Updates From Protagoras and Meno

Finished Protagoras and read it twice. Contained such a detailed look into whether virtue is taught or inherent.

Just finished Protagoras and it was absolutely fantastic! This translation is quite fun and a nice change of pace compared to Republic. Excited to move on to Meno!

Finished Protagoras. Notes and glossary are illuminating. Nice idiom except for the poetry, in which I prefer David Horan's as far as that aspect is concerned. We'll see if I have time after finishing this book to compare with Horan's translation before a review. Until then, off to the dialouge Meno.

By a thin margin due to the lack of slang and increased formality, I like David Horan's translation of the poetry more. I only saw the poetry sections of Horan's so I'm yet to compare the entire dialouge.

That being said the English runs fine, and the notes are good with Beresford's (Penguin).
