This handsome collector's edition presents Plato's classic philosophical work, The Republic, featuring gold cover embossing and gilded page-edges.

The Republic is one of the earliest political treatises ever written and Plato's most remarkable work. Through a fictional dialogue with Socrates, Plato examines the nature of justice, the character of the city-state, and what it means to be a just man. Plato argued that power corrupts and the only way to protect against this was through the rule of philosopher kings. In The Republic he also grapples with the questions of our senses and reality through the famous 'Allegory of the Cave'.

The Republic is highly accessible yet filled with fascinating depths for students of philosophy. It shows us the vision of an ideal society and what we can do as individuals to help create it.

This beautiful pocket-sized gift edition contains the classic, unabridged translation by renowned Oxford classicist, Benjamin Jowett, presented with a gold embossed cover design, ivory pages, beautifully designed endpapers and gold gilded page edges. Part of the Arcturus Ornate Classics series, this book makes wonderful gift for any lover of classic philosophy.
