At the beginning of his Metaphysics, Aristotle attributed several strange-sounding theses to Plato. Generations of Plato scholars have assumed that these could not be found in the dialogues. In this study, he shows how this correspondence can be extended to key, but previously obscure, passages in the Statesman.
