In this cornerstone of Western philosophy, Plato presents a vision of an ideal society governed by justice and led by philosopher-kings. Through the character of Socrates, the dialogue explores the nature of justice, the role of education, the theory of forms, and the organization of the ideal state. Plato's Republic delves into profound questions about the nature of reality, the soul, and the pursuit of the good life, making it one of the most influential philosophical works of all time.
Translated by Benjamin Jowett, with the Jowett notes and marginalia. Illustrated by Laszlo Matulay. Introduction by Scott Buchanan, Dean of St. John's College.
