Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"Those interested in the Republic primarily as a work of philosophy can not do better than Grube. . . . [He] renders Plato's arguments in unfussy, idiomatic English . . . sensitive to nuances of argument and the connection of philosophical ideas."
—John M. Cooper, Princeton University
“Unmistakably superior: more lucid, more accurate, more readable. Above all, they’re lucidly adorned, unpretentious, and in translating Plato that counts a good deal. The prose is, as English prose, persuasive, cogent, and as eloquent as it can be without departing from the text.”
—William Arrowsmith
