QR code
"Πολιτεία, Τόμος 1" by Plato is a philosophical work written around 380 BCE. In this influential dialogue, Socrates and prominent Athenians debate the meaning of justice and whether a just person is happier than an unjust one. Through their conversation, they construct an ideal utopian city-state called "Kallipolis," ruled by philosopher-kings. The work explores the nature of the philosopher, Plato's Theory of Forms including the famous Allegory of the Cave, the relationship
between philosophy and poetry, and the parallels between the human soul and the city. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
