Republic (Hackett Classics) — No Dust Jacket

Plato’s Republic examines justice in the individual and the state through a dialogue that ranges across politics, ethics, education, psychology, knowledge and the nature of reality. From the construction of the ideal city to the allegory of the cave, it remains one of the foundational works of ancient philosophy and political thought.

This Hackett edition features C. D. C. Reeve’s translation together with a select bibliography, synopses of the individual books, glossaries and indexes designed to support close reading and study. Please note: this copy is supplied without a dust jacket. The book itself is the listed hardcover edition.
