The Republic

Meer over het boek

Focusing on political and ethical justice, this influential work by Plato outlines the structure of an ideal state. It stands out from Socratic dialogues by presenting Plato's affirmative views rather than just questioning. Featuring Socrates as a central character, the text delves into philosophical themes through rich literary portrayals of characters and their dynamics. This exploration of philosophy is integral to understanding Plato's vision and remains a cornerstone of Western thought.
