Gorgias by Plato

Gorgias by Plato

Are high moral standards essential or should we give our preference to the pragmatist who gets things done or negotiates successfully? Taking the form of a dialogue between Socrates, Gorgias, Polus and Callicles, this title debates perennial questions about the nature of government and those who aspire to public office.

Walter Hamilton taught at Cambridge, Eton and Rugby and translated several Platonic texts for Penguin.
Chris Emlyn-Jones teaches in the department of Classical Studies at the Open University and has published on Homer and Plato.
