Author: Plato ISBN: 9781603848114 Binding: paperback Section: Philosophy/Rhetoric/Logic A Plato Reader offers eight of Plato's best-known works—Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, Meno, Pha edo, Symposium, Phaedrus, and Republic—unabridged, expertly introduced and annotated, and in widely admired translations by C. D. C. Reeve, G. M. A. Grube, Alexander Nehamas, and Paul Woodruff. The collection features Socrates as its central character and a model of the examined life. Its range allows us to see him in action in very different settings and philosophical modes: from the elenctic Socrates of the Meno and the dialogues concerning his trial and death, to the erotic Socrates of the Symposium and Phaedrus, to the dialectician of the Republic.
