Book Description
The struggle which Plato has Socrates recommend to his interlocutors in Gorgias - and to his readers - is the struggle to overcome the temptations of worldly success and to concentrate on genuine morality. Ostensibly an enquiry into the value of rhetoric, the dialogue soon becomes an investigation into the value of these two contrasting ways of life. In a series of dazzling and bold arguments, Plato attempts to establish that only morality can bring a person true happiness, and to demolish alternative viewpoints. It is not suprising that Gorgias is one of Plato's most widely read dialogues. Philosophers read it for its coverage of central moral issues; others enjoy its vividness, clarity and occasional bitter humour. This new translation is accompanied by explanatory notes and an informative introduction.

Book Description
Excerpt from Talks With Socrates About Life: Translations From the Gorgias and the Republic of Plato The dialogue which occupies the larger part of this volume, although generally known by the name of the rhetorician Gorgias, sometimes bears the sub-title of Rhetoric. This latter may seem a strange designation for a work the aim of which is nothing less than to discover wherein happiness, or, what to Plato is a synonymous term, The Good, consists. But, as his great master had brought down philosophy from the "world of pure thought" to the daily haunts of men, - to the street, the market-place, the public Assembly; so Plato deemed no subject so trivial that its relation to The Good might not profitably be ascertained, none so remote that it might not form a connecting link between men's daily lives and the universal object which "every soul pursues, and for the sake of which it does all that it does." Surely, then, the art which was more persistently and systematically cultivated than any other by the Athenians of the time of Socrates and Plato is no inappropriate heading to this search after "the best way of life."
