-His life, death, and background. -Dialogues, works, and theories. -The most essential concepts Plato has brought across to the general population. -Plato’s views on political philosophy and democracy. -Some of the best-known quotes by Plato. -Perspectives on moral ethics. And much more!

Don’t remain in the dark. Learn about the different kinds of Platonism and the founder who laid the foundation of Western reasoning in the philosophical realm.
