- The Republic is a Socratic dialogue written by Plato around 380 BC concerning the definition of justice and the order and character of the just city-state and the just man. It is Plato's best-known work and has proven to be one of the most intellectually and historically influential works of philosophy and political theory. In it, Socrates along with various Athenians and foreigners discuss the meaning of justice and examine whether or not the just man is happier than the unjust man by considering a series of different cities coming into existence "in speech", culminating in a city (Kallipolis) ruled by philosopher-kings; and by examining the nature of existing regimes. The participants also discuss the theory of forms, the immortality of the soul, and the roles of the philosopher and of poetry in society.
This narrator is as good as any professional.
I can't tell you how happy I am to have opened this and heard Bob's voice.
Better reading than any of the professional readings I’ve found

This audiobook saved my ass man, good shit right here.
Well, you are succinct if anything. You made me laugh.
It’s so wonderful to reach an age where patience and curiosity have time in a persons life to stretch myself . I’ve always wanted to read classics, to challenge myself, to learn more from history. Thank you!
And in your old age you can enjoy calmness and freedom from the mad masters of youth, like Sophocles said
Best narration
شكرا جزيلا على هذا المرئي وهذه القراءة الجميلة
So clutch
Justice is useful as it can come in any profession. Eg an unjust doctor won't do much good but a just doctor would.
Good stuff.
23:40 - Failure of the Definition
Which is also around the line 336 mark in the original.
Cette phrase me fait réfléchir.
« life is no longer life.. »
What version of the republic is being read by the narrator?
I am listening while reading along in the Duke Classics version. :)
Even the narrator sounds like Plato.
What translation is this? My three copies of Republic have different wording.
Poor Polemarchus, his dad started it and just left him to deal with it.
« le souffrant dans son lit. »
Son cœur puisse retrouver la vérité.
( perdue ) ( ou retrouvée )
Qu’en est-il de l’allemand.
Peut-il réparer les blessures du passé..
Peut-être ✨

Thank gods i would have died if I had had to read this myslef
What goddesses he knew to worship then
Qu’en est-il des dents.
Pourront-elles se taire durant le jour d’un sacre.
Ou tout au long ( la nuit ) d’un égaré..
May.✨🌝
“Justice is to speak your truth and to pay your debts”
“It is just for a man to do good to his friends as he does bad to his enemy”
“The repayment of a debt, it just”
“Justice is giving to a man what is proper to him” I.e payment, or other forms of Justice
“In time of peace, Justice is of no use”
“Justice is useful when money is useless”
“Justice is not good for much”
“If a just man is good at keeping money, then he is good at stealing money, thus he is a thief”
- not sure what he was getting at here
“Justice is an art of the theft” follow by “that’s not what I mean”
- made me giggle, knowing they were okay will being wrong and open to learning. As prior they were informant. A man truly can know nothing, thus making them wise.
“The good are our friends and the bad our enemies”
“It is just to do good to our friends and harm to our enemies”..” we should further say, it is just to do good to our friends when they are good and harm to our enemies when they are evil”
“Are the just to injure anyone at all”
“The injuring of another can be in no case just”
Communion des émotions.
C’est mieux.
N’est-il pas ( vrai )
