as it not only comes after the Republic, but directly after, as if Plato, upon completion of the Republic, was wholly unsatisfied and decided to write the Timaeus to compensate for the Republic’s inadequacies. Diogenes tells us that, even in his day, the ordering of the dialogues was not settled, and that there were many different orderings. He tells us that Aristophanes the Grammarian and others grouped Plato’s dialogues into trilogies, claiming the first to contain the Republic, the Timaeus, and the Critias (3.61- 2), a different order, but the Timaeus was still directly after the Republic. The problem of this chronology has by no means been settled, as scholars today continue to debate the ordering of Plato’s dialogues. To give an exhaustive account of all the various chronologies and the reasons for said chronologies would be a paper in itself, so I will instead suffice to give only the opinions of A. E. Taylor, who asserts that the Timaeus followed the Republic, and Gilbert Ryle, who asserts that the Timaeus anteceded the Republic. For this debate, the account Socrates gives at the beginning of the Timaeus begins with a recap of the discussion Socrates and his interlocutors had the day before. What Socrates proceeds to recount is the material contained in books II-V of the Republic, ending right 14
efore the heart of the Republic begins. Not only does Socrates end here, but he even asks Timaeus if he forgot anything, to which Timaeus assures Socrates that he successfully remembered everything from the day before (19a-b). If the discussion of the day before were indeed the Republic, why would all its most important parts be omitted? If it wasn’t, then what could Socrates be recalling that is so similar to it? Taylor argues that the summary of part of the Republic points to the Timaeus coming after the Republic. 3 He does, however, consent to the possibility that the absence of important doctrines in the Republic could mean that there were additions to the Republic after the completion of the Timaeus, although he regards this theory as “groundless speculations.” 4 Nevertheless, such a possibility does not deter Taylor from his assertion of the relative orders, as he puts more faith in the style of the Timaeus for its relative date than references to previous works. 5 He places in one group the Sophist, Politicus, Timaeus, Philebus, and Laws because of their stylistic divergence from other dialogues, giving four examples. 3 A.
