Description

Librarian note: An alternative cover for this ISBN can be foundhere.Presented in the form of a dialogue between Socrates and three different interlocutors, this classic text is an enquiry into the notion of a perfect community and the ideal individual within it. During the conversation, other questions are raised: what is goodness?; what is reality?; and what is knowledge? The Republic also addresses the purpose of education and the role of both women and men as guardians of the people. With remarkable lucidity and deft use of allegory, Plato arrives at a depiction of a state bound by harmony and ruled by philosopher kings.

About the Author

One of the most influential and renowned Green philosophers, Plato wrote on topics spanning politics, mathematics, aesthetics and ethics. A student of Socrates and a teacher of Aristotle, Plato founded the Academy in Athens, which is considered the Western world’s first institution of higher learning.
