The Republic: - Illustrated -

eBook (Clydesdale July 3, 2017)
The Republic (Greek: Πολιτεία, Politeia; Latin: Res Publica) was written by Plato (born 428/27 BC or 434/23 BC, died 348/347 BC) around 380 BC. It is a Socratic dialogue that may have taken place during the Peloponnesian War (431–404 BC). This book is considered, for good or for bad, one of the most influential works in political philosophy in Western Civilization and Plato’s best-known text.
Plato discusses philosophy and philosophers, justice, the nature of different forms of existing governments, and proposes the government of the philosopher-king, an enlightened figure who has the ability to guide society.
