Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

'Ostensibly a discussion of the nature of justice, The Republic presents Plato\'s vision of the ideal state, covering a wide range of topics: social, educational, psychological, moral, and philosophical. It also includes some of Plato\'s most important writing on the nature of reality and the theory of the \"forms.\"

Translated with an Introduction by Desmond Lee'

About the Author

'Plato (c. 427-347 b.c.) founded the Academy in Athens, the prototype of all Western universities, and wrote more than twenty philosophical dialogues.

Desmond Lee (1908-1993) taught for many years at Cambridge University and also translated Plato\'s Timaeus and Critias for Penguin Classics.'
