Abstract Emlyn-Jones (classical studies, Open U.) translates the opening parts of Plato's most widely read and cited dialogue, on pages facing the Greek text edited by S. R. Slings and published by Oxford Univ...rsity Press in 2003. His introduction and comments draw on recent literary theory that has not previously been applied to the work. He discusses the composition of Republic; the dramatic context, characters, and structure; the cultural background; and the arguments of Socrates with Cephalus, Polymarchus, and Thrasymachus and of Glaucon with Adeimantus. A chronology of Plato's life and works is also provided. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
