{"product_id":"platons-protagoras-1864-plato-9781165678112","title":"Platon's Protagoras (1864)","description":"Plato's Protagoras is a philosophical dialogue written by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato in the 4th century BCE. The dialogue is a discussion between Socrates and Protagoras, a renowned sophist, on the nature of virtue and the relationship between virtue and knowledge. The dialogue begins with a discussion on whether virtue can be taught or if it is innate. Protagoras argues that virtue can be taught, while Socrates argues that it cannot. The two then engage in a series of arguments and examples to support their respective views. Throughout the dialogue, Plato explores various themes such as the nature of knowledge, the role of education in society, and the importance of self-knowledge. He also critiques the sophists, who were known for their rhetorical skills and ability to persuade others, but were often criticized for their lack of concern for truth and morality. Overall, Plato's Protagoras is a thought-provoking and complex work that continues to be studied and debated by scholars and philosophers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
