englischIn spite of its brevity and its aporetical ending, Plato’s Hippias minor is worth considering, for it deals with relevant questions such as falsehood, its relationship to wrongdoing and the more complex problem of voluntary and involuntary action. Moreover, the central section of the dialogue is devoted to the exegesis of the Homeric poems and in particular of the Iliad, developing a comparison between Achilles and Odysseus and thus offering important evidence of Plato’s early interest in poetic production. The aim of the present work is to give a new critical edition of the Greek text with Italian translation, preceded by a general introduction and followed by a continuous lemmatic commentary in order to provide a systematic analysis of the dialogue in every aspect.
