Transcending dominant debates of whether Plato's Republic is about
the ideal state, the soul, art, or education, Ivor Ludlam's
analysis treats the dialogue as pure conversation. Returning to the
original Greek, Ludlam examines the dialogue both in its details
and in its entirety. The result is a holistic interpretation
wherein Ludlam reveals how each character becomes a paradigm for an
aspect of the Republic's central theme-the apparent good.
Ultimately, it is the individual aspects of apparent good that the
characters represent that determines the final course of the
dialogue. Revisioning the central theme of the Republic through the
motivations and interactions of its characters, Ludlam provides an
innovative, holistic, and dramatic analysis of this foundational
work.
