The volume that you hold in your hands offers a distinctive
alternative to the many editions of Plato's Republic currently in
print. Andrea Tschemplik provides a fresh and accessible
translation of Plato's classic work, specially designed to aid
newcomers in better understanding and appreciating the text. In
addition, this volume provides a range of student-friendly
supplements to enhance the learning experience. A general
introduction addresses the standard challenges associated with
reading Platonic dialogues, outlines the basic structure of the
work, introduces key characters, and offers historical context.
Each book begins with a helpful outline, and ends with study
questions ideal for classroom discussion, paper assignments, or
self-guided consideration of the text. Annotations, appendices, and
an extensive index round out the volume.
