Sophist

Explore the nature of being and non-being with Plato's "Sophist," a cornerstone of Western philosophy. Through the renowned Socratic method of dialectic, this pivotal work delves into the complex question of defining the sophist and distinguishing truth from falsehood.

Plato, a student of Socrates, masterfully employs logic and metaphysics to dissect the art of persuasion and expose the deceptive practices often employed by those who claim to possess wisdom. "Sophist" is not merely a historical text; it's a timeless exploration of meaning, knowledge, and the very foundations of philosophical thought.

Engage with arguments that have shaped intellectual discourse for centuries as Plato challenges readers to confront fundamental questions about reality and appearance. This meticulously prepared print edition offers a clear and accessible entry point into Plato's profound contributions to the fields of philosophy and logic.
