Book excerpt: Benjamin Jowett's translations of Plato have long been classics in their own right. In this volume, Professor Hayden Pelliccia has revised Jowett's renderings of five key dialogues, giving us a modern Plato faithful to both Jowett's best features and Plato's own masterly style. Gathered here are many of Plato's liveliest and richest texts. Ion takes up the question of poetry and introduces the Socratic method. Protagoras discusses poetic interpretation and shows why cross-examination is the best way to get at the truth. Phaedrus takes on the nature of rhetoric, psychology, and love, as does the famous Symposium. Finally, Apology gives us Socrates' art of persuasion put to the ultimate test--defending his own life. Pelliccia's new Introduction to this volume clarifies its contents and addresses the challenges of translating Plato freshly and accurately. In its combination of accessibility and depth, Selected Dialogues of Plato is the ideal introduction to one of the key thinkers of all time.

Download or read book Plato s Symposium written by Plato and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-01-07 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plato, Allan Bloom wrote, is "the most erotic of philosophers," and his Symposium is one of the greatest works on the nature of love ever written. This new edition brings together the English translation of the renowned Plato scholar and translator, Seth Benardete, with two illuminating commentaries on it: Benardete's "On Plato's Symposium" and Allan Bloom's provocative essay, "The Ladder of Love." In the Symposium, Plato recounts a drinking party following an evening meal, where the guests include the poet Aristophanes, the drunken Alcibiades, and, of course, the wise Socrates. The revelers give their views on the timeless topics of love and desire, all the while addressing many of the major themes of Platonic philosophy: the relationship of philosophy and poetry, the good, and the beautiful.

Book excerpt: Free Audible: https: //www.youtube.com/@AncientWisdom888/videos **"The Republic: Unveiling the Blueprint for a Just Utopia"** Plato's "The Republic" is a fiery crucible of intellectual brilliance, where the flames of Socratic dialogue forge a visionary blueprint for the ideal society. At its core, this timeless masterpiece challenges the very fabric of human existence, posing profound questions that continue to haunt our collective conscience. Within its hallowed pages, Plato unravels the nature of justice, daring us to peer into the abyss of moral ambiguity and emerge with a newfound understanding of righteousness. He envisions a city-state where philosopher-kings, guided by reason and virtue, reign supreme, transcending the limits of ordinary governance. But "The Republic" is not just a treatise on governance; it's a passionate exploration of the human soul. It delves deep into the caverns of our desires, exposing the shadows that cloud our judgment. Plato's allegory of the cave becomes a piercing metaphor for our society's hypnotic attachment to the illusions of perception, beckoning us to break free and embrace the light of truth. In this utopian symposium, Plato contemplates the role of women, the challenges of education, and the power of art to shape the moral fiber of a civilization. He unveils the perilous descent from democracy to tyranny, a warning echoing through the annals of history. "The Republic" is not a mere book; it's a call to action. It demands that we question the status quo, that we seek wisdom over indulgence, and that we aspire to justice even in the face of moral ambiguity. It is an incendiary manifesto for those who dare to dream of a more just, enlightened, and virtuous world. Plato's magnum opus beckons, inviting us to step into the fiery crucible of philosophical inquiry and forge a brighter future for humanity. With this release of the newly translated version of Plato's "The Republic," we embark on a voyage that intertwines the wisdom of the past with the innovations of the future. Join us as we explore the realms of ancient Greece, guided by the astute collaboration between Plato and the AI that translated it to modern English. "Philosophy is the compass of the mind, guiding us through the uncharted waters of existence, where every question is a star in the endless night sky of human curiosity." ChatGPT 29 September 2023
