Book Description:
Στους διαλόγους του ο Πλάτωνας (427 π.Χ. – 347 π.Χ.) παρουσιάζει τις φιλοσοφικές του θεωρίες με τη μορφή συζήτησης, που με κάποια υπαρκτή ή όχι αφορμή οδηγούν τους συνομιλητές στην εξέταση βαθιών φιλοσοφικών εννοιών και πολιτικών θεμάτων. Το πρόσωπο που κατέχει την κύρια θέση σ' αυτούς είναι ο Σωκράτης που με χαριτωμένο και εύστροφο τρόπο εκμαιεύει από τους συνομιλητές του την άγνοια ή τις απάτες που τρέφουν για ζητήματα που κατά το φιλόσοφο είναι στο κέντρο της ανθρώπινης ζωής. Το αρχαίο κείμενο διαβασμένο με σύγχρονη νεοελληνική προφορά. In his dialogues Plato (427 b.C. – 347 b.C.) presents his philosophical theories in the form of conversations, started off from real or fictitious pretexts and leading the participants to examine deep philosophical and political matters. The key figure in most of them is Socrates, who in his humorous and intelligent manner brings out of his companions their ignorance or illusions about matters which to the philosopher's mind are at the center of human life. Ancient text read with contemporary Greek pronunciation.
