What Homer was to Epic poetry, what Cicero and Demosthenes were to oratory, and what Shakespeare was to the drama of England, Plato was to ancient philosophy, not unapproachable nor unapproached, but possessing an inexplicable but unquestioned supremacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authentic records of his life are meagre, and much that has been written concerning him is of a speculative nature. He was born at Athens in the year 427 B.C. His father's name was Ariston, and his mother's family, which claimed its descent from Solon, included among its members many Athenian notables, among whom was Oritias, one of the thirty tyrants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn his early youth Plato applied himself to poetry and painting, both of which pursuits he relinquished to become the disciple and follower of Socrates. It is said that his name was originally Aristocles, but that it was changed to Plato on account of the breadth of his shoulders and forehead. He is also said to have been an expert wrestler and to have taken part in several important battles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Apology Of Socrates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction to the crito\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrito; Or, The Duty Of A Citizen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction To The Ph do\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePh do; Or, The Immortality Of The Soul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 98\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.2 x 11.02 x 8.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 25, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52301051494682,"sku":"9781981147137","price":17.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/3234\/1530\/files\/IvbsvP8PIC9781981147137.webp?v=1780238806","url":"https:\/\/athenashearth.co\/products\/platos-apology-crito-and-phaedo-of-socrates-plato-paperback","provider":"Athenas Hearth","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
