Plato Six Pack (Illustrated): Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, Phaedo, The Allegory of the Cave and Symposium

Plato Six Pack – Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, Phaedo, The Allegory of the Cave and Symposium (Illustrated) . The Symposium alone, Jowett's translation, is worth e price of all these. Each is a masterwork of thinking, in which conclusions are reached that cannot be improved up today. Some are much more. Confused by the machinations of government? Consternated by the intricacies of love in all its outworkings? How about hate? Fellowship? Rhetoric? At the very least, for a pittance get this Plato set and read the Crito, Symposium and the Allegory of the Cave. Benjamin Jowett's translations of Plato have long been classics in their own right. In this volume, Professor Hayden Pelliccia has revised Jowett's renderings of key dialogues, giving us Plato faithful to both a great translator and the thinker. The way things are going to day, you'll want to have read the Allegory of the Cave, lest you relive it. Once again, this series proves you can enjoy the benefits of higher education in your own home, any time.

Plato is wonderful, surprisingly easy to read and comprehend, unexpectedly readable. A pleasure to dive into!

The writings of Plato collected in six volumes, complete with illustrations and portraits of Plato. An excellent reference or study guide for students and philosophy lovers.

Complete Plato! If you need to have all Plato's major works in one collection and at a great price, this is it. The illustrations are a nice bonus!

A superb classical collection not to be missed. A great gift pack for sure.

Another fantastic box lot!!

6 in one!!!!

Very nice study edition at an extremely reasonable price. Basically, unless you're a classics student, this is all the Plato you're ever going to need in one handy, highlightable volume.

Great condition and a great read

Plato Six Pack – Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, Phaedo, The Allegory of the Cave and Symposium (Illustrated)I wouldn't try to critique the texts or explain what's inside of it as that is rather a question of common knowledge but the Plato Six Pack is an appalling publication. Very badly presented. The cover of the book is exactly what is shown on the image and that gives you a sense of the graphical style. The layout and size of text, the graphics and the quality and colour of paper is not good at all if you are after something enjoyable to read and hold in your hands.
