The Republic
(eBook)
Description
The Republic Plato - Plato's The Republic is widely acknowledged as the cornerstone of Western philosophy. Presented in the form of a dialogue between Socrates and three different interlocutors, it is an inquiry 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; what is knowledge? The work contemplates the duality inherent in life: the reality we perceive through our senses and the truth we can gain through the world of ideas. Although Plato is largely concerned with the definition of justice, the city-state and the just man, he also discusses a range of topics: social, moral, educational and psychological. Considered to be one of the bedrocks of Greek philosophy, Republic has had immeasurable impact on Western thought through the ages. This book is a necessary read for students of philosophy, political and social sciences and law.
