Platon war Sokrates' Schüler, und als solcher wohl sein größter Fan. Platon seinerseits war der Lehrer von Aristoteles und wohl einer der größten Geisteswissenschaftler aller Zeiten. In dieser Hörbuch-Box sind versammelt: 1. Die Apologie des Sokrates: Die Verteidigungsrede des Sokrates gegen seine Ankläger, die ihm unterstellten, er habe die Jugend verführt (Track 1 - 19, Spieldauer 90 Min.). 2. Phaidon: In Dialogform erörtern der zum Tode verurteilte Sokrates und seine Schüler die menschliche Seele (Track 20 - 80, Spieldauer 200 Min.). 3. Symposion - Das Gastmahl: Während eines Gelages huldigen die Anwesenden reihum dem Gott Eros.

Dabei sind die den Dialog beherrschenden zwei Fragen noch recht leicht zu fassen: «Was ist, wenn das Eins ist?» und «Was ist, wenn das Eins nicht ist?» Was in der Untersuchung dieser Fragen sich dann entwickelt, ist eine weit ausgreifende und schwer nachzuvollziehende Reflexion des begrifflichen Verhältnisses von Einheit und Vielheit, Ähnlichkeit und Unähnlichkeit, Gleichheit und Verschiedenheit, Sein und Nicht-Sein. Das hier vorliegende Hörbuch gibt den Parmenides in vollständiger Lesung in der Übersetzung von Otto Apelt wieder und stellt den 21.

The Republic poses questions that endure: What is justice? What form of community fosters the best possible life for human beings? What is the nature and destiny of the soul? What form of education provides the best leaders for a good republic? What are the various forms of poetry and the other arts, and which ones should be fostered and which ones should be discouraged? How does knowing differ from believing?

More than 2,000 years later, Plato's Republic remains astonishingly relevant to our everyday lives. It poses one question after another that might well have been drawn from the headlines and debates of our nation's recent history: What sort of person should rule the state? Are all citizens equal before the law? Should everyone have equal access to health care? Plato's greater inquiry, however, was into the question of defining justice itself and the reasons why a person would choose a life aligned with that virtue.

Im Gorgias, einer der umfangreichsten Dialoge Platons, trifft Sokrates auf eben jenen damals weithin bekannten Rhetor Gorgias. In seiner ihm ganz eigenen Art zieht Sokrates Gorgias sogleich in ein Gespräch über die Frage, was die Redekunst eigentlich sei und ob man sie tatsächlich eine Kunst nennen dürfe. Mit der dialektischen Gesprächsmethode der Erkenntnisfindung überfordert, reicht Gorgias schon bald das Wort an seinen Begleiter Polos weiter, der nach Kräften bemüht ist, die Rhetorik in ihrer staatstragenden Bedeutung gegenüber Sokrates zu verteidigen - jedoch ohne Erfolg.

This lively and accessible introduction to Plato focuses on the philosophy and argument of his writings, drawing the listener into Plato's way of doing philosophy, and the general themes of his thinking. It looks at Plato as a thinker grappling with philosophical problems in a variety of ways, rather than a philosopher with a fully worked-out system. It includes a brief account of Plato's life and the various interpretations that have been drawn from the sparse remains of information.

For more than two millennia, philosophers have grappled with life's most profound and "eternal" questions. It is easy to forget, however, that these questions about fundamental issues like justice, injustice, virtue, vice, or happiness were not always eternal. They once had to be asked for the first time. This was a step that could place the inquirer beyond the boundaries of the law. And the Athenian citizen and philosopher who took that courageous step in the 5th century B.C. was Socrates.

The dramatic nature of Plato’s dialogues is delightfully evident in the "Symposium." The marriage between character and thought bursts forth as the guests gather at Agathon's house to celebrate the success of his first tragedy. With wit and insight, they each present their ideas about love - from Erixymachus’s scientific naturalism to Aristophanes' comic fantasy. The unexpected arrival of Alcibiades breaks the spell cast by Diotima’s ethereal climb up the staircase of love to beauty itself.

What is Political Science? Within human society, it is customary to distinguish between the following spheres: economic, political, social, and spiritual. The political sphere is important in that it involves and determines the interactions of different political powers. This understanding lies at the foundation of any political analysis of public life. Politics as a specific sector within human society is as old as it is modern. Many famous statesmen and scientists are credited as the authors of laws and political systems.

What does Plato have to do with the Christian faith? Quite a bit, it turns out. In ways that might surprise us, Christians throughout the history of the church and even today have inherited aspects of the ancient Greek philosophy of Plato, who was both Socrates's student and Aristotle's teacher. To help us understand the influence of Platonic thought on the Christian faith, Louis Markos offers careful readings of some of Plato's best-known texts and then traces the ways that his work shaped the faith of some of Christianity's most beloved theologians.
