Complete digitally restored reprint(facsimile) of the original edition of 1908 (third edition) with excellent resolution and outstanding readability. Translated by Benjamin Jowett (1817-1893). The Layout is +30 % larger as the original. The Republic is Plato's best-known work, it has proven to be one of the world's most influential works of philosophy and political theory, both intellectually and historically. In it, Socrates along with various Athenians and foreigners discuss the meaning of justice and examine whether or not the just man is happier than the unjust man by considering a series of different cities coming into existence in speech, culminating in a city called Kallipolis, which is ruled by philosopher-kings; and by examining the nature of existing regimes. The participants also discuss the theory of forms, the immortality of the soul, and the roles of the philosopher and of poetry in society.
