Ambuel (philosophy and Asian studies, Mary Washington College, Virginia) offers an interpretation of The Sophist that highlights the subtleties and implications of what is otherwise a rather technical and plodding piece. Then he provides a new translation intended to clarify that interpretation and to overcome barriers that prevent modern readers from grasping the piece's philosophical depths.
