Description: Plato - Five Dialogues by Prof Benjamin Jowett, Plato Plato was a philosopher in Classical Greece and the founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world. He is widely considered the most pivotal figure in the development of philosophy, especially the Western tradition. Unlike nearly all of Platos philosophical contemporaries, Platos entire body of work is believed to have survived intact for over 2,400 years. The works which are most often assigned to Platos early years are all considered to be Socratic dialogues, written from 399 to 387. Platos Middle dialogues were writtten from 387 to 361 and Platos latter dialogues were written in the period between 361 and his death in 347. This anthology volume includes Five Dialogues of Plato; Euthyphro - Apology - Crito - Phaedo - Meno. Apology, Crito, and Phaedo are dialogues in which Plato details the Philosopher Socrates last days. Meno is a Socratic dialogue that attempts to determine the definition of virtue in general, rather than particular virtues, such as justice or temperance. Platos Euthyphro is set in the weeks leading up to Socrates trial, it features Socrates and Euthyphro, a religious expert who attempts to define piety or holiness. Platos works are often textbook required reading for courses in politics & social sciences, philosophy, humanities, and Greek & Roman studies. This anthology volume includes many of Platos most popular and studied works.
