Description

The Republic itself is nothing at the beginning of Plato's most famous, influential and incredible book. Its architect will be Socrates, the fictional person that Plato creates for himself. In the first episode, Socrates meets some acquaintances during the Bendis festival. With his reputation for good conversation already well established, Socrates is approached by some well-known dilettant philosophers and engaged in a dialogue. The discussion moves quickly towards justice thanks to Socrates. The other philosophers, including Thrasymachus, Polermarcus, Glaucon, and Adeimanto, enthusiastically indulge in such a valuable subject. However, it is unlikely at this point that any of these philosophers save Socrates, of course, anticipates the ambition and enormity of their endeavor.
