Product Description
Plato is perhaps the most significant philosopher who ever lived and The Republic, composed in Athens in about 375 BC, is widely regarded as his most famous dialogue.

1 comment for Plato’s Republic: A Biography ↓
This book is NOT a copy of Plato’s Republic, but a commentary on the Greek text. The title of this book leads us to believe it contains Plato’s Republic as well as biographical information. This is NOT the case. Blackburn’s work is, as always, insightful and worth reading, but it is NOT a copy of the Republic.
