520 _aPlato's Republic a classic work of the fourth century B.C., raises questions that are still at the heart of many modern conflicts. What is knowledge? What goodness? What is political authority? Plato see these questions as aspects of a single theme. He offers a portrait of an ideal community in which power is entrusted to philosophy, and other men and women accept the rule of the wise and the good.
