Description

The Timaeus by Plato is a philosophical dialogue that explores the nature of justice, beauty, and the ideal state. Written around 360 B.C., this influential work was born out of Plato's fascination with the ideas of his mentor, Socrates. Plato's journey as a philosopher began when he was still young, and he went on to serve in the military before pursuing a career in politics. However, it was Socrates' death that had a profound impact on him, leading him to re-evaluate his views on democracy and philosophy. This experience shaped Plato's thoughts on the ideal society, which he later developed through his Academy. Published in 2014, this paperback edition of The Timaeus provides an accessible introduction to one of the most important works of Western philosophy.
