Translated by John Llewelyn Davies and David James Vaughan. With an
Introduction by Stephen Watt. The ideas of Plato (c429-347BC) have
influenced Western philosophers for over two thousand years. Such
is his importance that the twentieth-century philosopher A.N.
Whitehead described all subsequent developments within the subject
as foot-notes to Plato's work. Beyond philosophy, he has exerted a
major influence on the development of Western literature, politics
and theology. The Republic deals with the great range of Plato's
thought, but is particularly concerned with what makes a
well-balanced society and individual. It combines argument and myth
to advocate a life organized by reason rather than dominated by
desires and appetites. Regarded by some as the foundation document
of totalitarianism, by others as a call to develop the full
potential of humanity, the Republic remains a challenging and
intensely exciting work.

1876. Rev. Vaughan presents a view of the religious history of
India during the Hindu, Buddhist, Mohammedan and Christian periods
in this book. His aim has been to stir up among thoughtful and
intelligent Christians a deeper interest in India by making its
religious history better known. To the antiquarian, the
philosopher, the metaphysician, this subject presents a rare field
for research and study; to an earnest Christian it appeals with
special force; in the mind of such an one it awakens sentiments of
tender sympathy and thrilling interest. Partial Contents: early
Hindus; nature and origin of caste; early Hinduism; mediaeval
Hinduism; Buddhist era; Mohammedam era; later Hinduism; dissolving
agencies; aggressive efforts; native church; conclusion.
