Descrizione: [Cicero’s Eccletic Platonism. Between Scepticism and Dogmatism] The article discusses Cicero’s Platonism through the lens of the reflection on writing as included in Plato’s Phaedrus. The Socratic method, as presented in Plato’s dialogues, is intended to provide an antidote to the problems with writing as described in Phaedrus by engaging the reader’s mind and provoking their own thinking. The discussion demonstrates the ways in which Cicero reinterprets the Socratic method through adhering to its most important features despite formal differences, particularly in Tusculanae disputationes, De finibus and De oratore. Cicero thus becomes a conscious imitator of Plato, one who skilfully employs the dialogic form as a philosophical tool and retains the Platonic tension between scepticism and dogmatism [Author].
