  • Overview

    El primero y más influyente libro de filosofía política de Occidente

    Introducción de Andrea Marcolongo

    Traducción de José Antonio Míguez

    La República es una de las obras más influyentes de la historia de la filosofía. Presentada en forma de diálogo entre Sócrates y varios interlocutores, indaga en la noción de la comunidad perfecta y en el papel del individuo en ella. A lo largo de la conversación, se plantean cuestiones de vital importancia no solo para la vida en sociedad, sino para el conjunto de la filosofía. ¿Qué es el bien? ¿Qué es la realidad? ¿Qué es el conocimiento? ¿Para qué sirve la educación? Con notable lucidez y un hábil uso de la alegoría, Platón acaba describiendo un Estado unido por la armonía y gobernado por «reyes filósofos».

    La presente edición ofrece una acendrada versión castellana de José Antonio Míguez, Premio Nacional de Traducción, y una iluminadora introducción de Andrea Marcolongo, pensadora de referencia sobre la cultura clásica y autora del fenómeno internacional La lengua de los dioses.

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    Plato's The Republic is widely acknowledged as the cornerstone of Western philosophy.

    Presented in the form of a dialogue between Socrates and three different interlocutors, it is an inquiry into the notion of a perfect community and the ideal individual within it. During the conversation other questions are raised: what is goodness; what is reality; what is knowledge? The Republic also addresses the purpose of education and the role of both women and men as "guardians" of the people. With remarkable lucidity and deft use of allegory, Plato arrives at a depiction of a state bound by harmony and ruled by "philosopher kings."
