The State: A New Translation presents Plato’s seminal work traditionally known as
The Republic in a clear, modern translation by Filibooks Translation. Plato’s profound exploration of justice, virtue, governance, and society begins with Socrates drawn into a lively debate on the nature of justice. Through layered dialogues, Socrates and his interlocutors examine the foundations of a just city, debating virtue, education, the division of labor, and the qualities necessary in rulers. Plato systematically questions the principles of justice and the good life, arguing for an ideal society governed by philosopher-kings who balance wisdom, courage, moderation, and justice. This translation reinvigorates Plato’s famous dialogues, making complex philosophical arguments accessible to contemporary readers and scholars alike.
