More about the book

Exploring the natural world and the myth of Atlantis, this collection features two of Plato's late dialogues. "Timaeus" discusses the universe's creation and its elements through Socratic dialogue, while "Critias" narrates the rise and fall of the god-descended Atlanteans, whose ambition leads to their downfall against Athens. The work showcases Plato's profound philosophical inquiries, though it remains unfinished. This edition includes translations by Benjamin Jowett, printed on premium acid-free paper, enhancing its scholarly value.
