| Sommario/riassunto: | The City-State of the Soul: Self-Constitution in Plato's Republic offers a reinterpretation of Plato's philosophical masterpiece, which presents the moral life as consisting, most deeply, in the constituting or "founding" of one's own soul. Plato wants to persuade the brightest and most ambitious that the life of justice and, in particular, of just governance puts their talents and ambitions to their best possible use. |
