Description

In this collection of Socratic dialogues, readers are invited into the rich philosophical discussions that shape foundational ideas of Western thought. Featuring prominent works such as "Gorgias," "Protagoras," and "Meno," the dialogues delve into issues of ethics, knowledge, and the nature of virtue. Each conversation unfolds through the method of questioning, revealing the complexities of human understanding and belief.

Benjamin Jowett's translation preserves the essence of Plato's inquiries while making them accessible to modern audiences. Engaging with the texts offers profound insights into the art of argumenation and the quest for truth, demonstrating how these ancient dialogues remain relevant in contemporary discourse. Through the interplay of Socratic wisdom and rhetoric, readers are encouraged to reflect on their own beliefs and the societal values that shape them.
