The Gorgias

There is a well-known saying that the whole of Western Philosophy is footnotes of Plato. This is because his writings have set the schema that philosophy can be said to have followed ever since. Following under the teachings of Socrates, Plato's works are among the world's greatest literature. In the Gorgias, as in nearly all the other dialogues of Plato, we are made aware that formal logic has as yet no existence. The dialogue naturally falls into three divisions, to which the three characters of Gorgias, Polus, and Callicles respectively correspond; and the form and manner change with the stages of the argument.

  • ""En este diálogo, Platón trata el tema de la oratoria, no desde un punto de vista meramente técnico, sino considerada como instrumento adecuado para la conquista del poder político. Pero al discutir la naturaleza del poder plantea luego la fundamental cuestión ética de la felicidad, que significa para él "el modo con el que es preciso vivir". El texto señala, dentro de la obra platónica, el tránsito de la época juvenil al periodo de madurez y tiene una particular importancia en la historia de la ética y de la filosofía política. Crítica severísima de casi todos los gobernantes atenienses, análisis inexorable de la tiranía y de la demagogia, tiene ya a instaurar la idead del gobierno del sabio. Además se esbozan algunos de los temas epistemológicos y metafísicos que se encuentran posteriormente desarrollados en otros diálogos del autor. En especial encontramos en Gorgias una primera prueba de la inmortalidad del alma, basada en exigencias de carácter ético. La edición cuenta con una traducción directa del griego a cargo del reconocido helenista, Ángel Cappelletti que incluye además numerosas notas aclaratorias y una indispensable introducción al texto." --Contratapa."@es

  • "Le texte de Platon est suivi d'un dossier qui permet de mettre l'oeuvre en perspective et de la questionner. Il la replace dans l'histoire des idées, analyse la figure de Platon et s'interroge sur la justice, la manière d'enseigner et l'art politique de Socrate. Avec une lecture du tableau de Titien, Danaé et Cupidon (1546)."
  • ""Taking the form of a dialogue between Socrates, Gorgias, Polus and Callicles, the Gorgias debates crucial questions about the nature of government. While the aspiring politician Callicles propounds the view that might is right, and the rhetorician Gorgias argues that oratory and the power to persuade represent 'the greatest good', Socrates insists on the duty of politicians to consider the welfare of their citizens--a duty he believed had been dishonoured in the Athens of his time. The dialogue offers fascinating insights into how classical Athens was governed, as well as creating a theoretical framework that has been highly influential on subsequent political debate"--Cover page 4."@en
  • ""Plato asserts the absolute supremacy of justice through the dramatic portraiture of Socrates in his opposition to the world" --Provided by publisher."@en
  • ""This is an excellent translation. It achieves a very high standard of accuracy and readability, two goals very difficult to attain in combination when it comes to such a master of prose and philosophical argument as Plato. Because of this the book is suitable for courses at all levels in philosophy, from introductory courses on Plato, or problems in Philosophy, to graduate seminars.". --Gerasimos Santas, Teaching Philosophy. "Zeyl's introduction is the best brief discussion of the Gorgias I have read. ... notes at the bottom of the page are well-chosen and helpful. Text is printed and bound."@en

  • "Though Gorgias was a Sicilian teacher of oratory, the dialogue is more concerned with ethics than with the art of public speaking. The ability, professed particularly by the Sophists, to make the worse cause appear the better, struck Plato as the source of all corruption. The dialogue's chief interest lies, not in Gorgias' courteous outline of his art, but in the clash between Socrates, the true philosopher, and Callicles, a young Athenian of the stamp of Alcibiades, who brashly maintains that might is right."
  • "Texte intégral dans une traduction réactualisée, avec des notes et un dossier proposant une analyse de l'oeuvre et de ses perspectives."
  • "Sans doute le plus animé et le plus féroce des dialogues platoniciens dans lequel Platon s'attaque au fondement de la démocratie et esquisse une nouvelle forme de pouvoir. Il se veut le protocole éthique d'un engagement politique et débat donc des conditions du gouvernement de soi et des autres."
