À propos de l'auteur

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.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing
Plato’s Republic asks what makes a perfect community – and how we can all strive to be the ‘ideal individual’ within it.
Written in around 375 BC, Plato uses an imagined dialogue to discuss the meaning of justice; whether the just man is happier than the unjust man; how education and learning should be sought throughout your life; and the nature of existing regimes, and how they could be improved.
Based on Socratic principles, Plato’s Republic is a classic, a tome of ground-breaking thought and is regarded as one of the most influential works in the history of philosophy.
