摘要：

The article explores the relationship between sexuality and political life in Plato's Statesman. The dialogue begins with an unsatisfying definition of political rule as care of the herd of featherless bipeds, that lumps human beings together with other animals. In order to correct this definition, the Eleatic Stranger gives a cosmic myth wherein sexual generation in women makes human beings aware of their relationship to others, and in turn develops their unique rational and hence political capacities. This allows human beings to move from their immediate physical reliance on others to their highest ends in beauty, goodness and justice.
