Lesser Hippias

It seems impossible to separate by any exact line the genuine writings of Plato from the spurious.

似乎不可能通过任何精确的界限来区分柏拉图的真伪作品。

Even the value of the Aristotelian authority is a good deal impaired by the uncertainty concerning the date and authorship of the writings which are ascribed to him.

即使亚里士多德的权威性也因关于归于他的著作的日期和作者身份的不确定性而大打折扣。
