Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Rich in drama and humour, they include the controversial Ion, a debate on poetic inspiration; Laches, in which Socrates seeks to define bravery; and Euthydemus, which considers the relationship between philosophy and politics. Together, these dialogues provide a definitive portrait of the real Socrates and raise issues still keenly debated by philosophers, forming an incisive overview of Plato's philosophy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, December 15, 2007
I cannot say much for how accurate the translation is but this text does provide some dialogs which are hard to get your hands on (in English anyway).
