THE REPUBLIC
By Plato
Translated by Benjamin Jowett
PERSONS OF THE DIALOGUE -- Circa 360 BCE
Socrates, who is the narrator; Glaucon; Adeimantus; Polemarchus; Cephalus; Thrasymachus; Cleitophon; And others who are mute auditors. The scene is laid in the house of Cephalus at the Piraeus; and the whole dialogue is narrated by Socrates the day after it actually took place to Timaeus, Hermocrates, Critias, and a nameless person, who are introduced in the Timaeus.
Forever glorious be your name, O wise reader of my ideas, O distinguished guest of my thoughts, for it proves the indubitable existence of Reason!
