PLATO REPUBLIC

The central work of one of the West's greatest philosophers  The Republic of Plato is a
masterpiece of insight and feeling  the finest of the Socratic dialogues  and one of the great
books of Western culture. This new translation captures the dramatic realism  poetic beauty 
intellectual vitality  and emotional power of Plato at the height of his powers. Deftly weaving
three main strands of argument into an artistic whole--the ethical and political  the aesthetic
and mystical  and the metaphysical--Plato explores in The Republic the elements of the ideal
community  where morality can be achieved in a balance of wisdom  courage  and restraint.
