Description

PLATO THE PHILOSOPHER - FOUNDER OF WESTERN PHILOSOPHY Plato was a philosopher in Classical Greece. He was also a mathematician, student of Socrates, writer of philosophical dialogues, and founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world. Along with his mentor, Socrates, and his student, Aristotle, Plato helped to lay the foundations of Western philosophy and science. Plato's sophistication as a writer is evident in his Socratic dialogues, thirty-six dialogues and thirteen letters have been ascribed to him. Plato's writings have been published in several fashions, this has led to several conventions regarding the naming and referencing of Plato's texts. Plato's dialogues have been used to teach a range of subjects, including philosophy, logic, ethics, rhetoric, and mathematics. Plato is one of the most important founding figures in Western philosophy.(G1) Details: Condition: New, Handmade in Greece Material: Casting stone Height: 17.5 cm(7 inches) Width: 14 cm(5.5 inches) Length: 11 cm - 4.3 inches Weight: 1.5 kg ********
