Albert Rivaud (1876-1955) was a French professor of philosophy and a classical scholar.  Ivar Lissner commenting^[725.158] on the unfinished nature of the trilogy of Plato’s Dialogues which included Timaeus and the incomplete Critias, quotes Rivaud as saying that what we have contains “not only ancient traditions but also the results of the latest contemporary research carried out during Plato’s lifetime.”

    Later in his life Rivaud blotted his copybook with expressions of anti-Semitism and admiration for Hitler.
