First sentence: If Plato's Seventh Letter is genuine (a question which will be discussed in its proper place among his writings), we are in the unique position for a writer of his time of having an autobiographical document outlining the stages of his development and concentrating on his part in a historical episode, the violent course of fourth-century Syracusan politics.
