關於本電子書
In Plato's Ion Socrates discusses with the titular character, a professional rhapsode who also lectures on Homer, the question of whether the rhapsode, a performer of poetry, gives his performance on account of his skill and knowledge or by virtue of divine possession. It is one of the shortest of Plato's dialogues.
關於作者
Plato, born around 428/427 BCE in Athens, is one of the most pivotal figures in Western philosophy. A student of Socrates and the teacher of Aristotle, Plato's works laid the foundational stones for Western thought and intellectual tradition. His dialogues, often featuring Socratic questioning, explore profound themes such as justice, virtue, and the nature of reality.Plato's life was marked by the turbulent political landscape of Athens, including the Peloponnesian War and the eventual downfall of Athenian democracy. These events deeply influenced his philosophical outlook, leading him to critique contemporary politics and propose his vision of an ideal state in his seminal work, "The Republic."Plato's establishment of the Academy in Athens, one of the earliest institutions of higher learning in the Western world, underscores his commitment to education and intellectual inquiry. The Academy attracted students from across the Greek world, fostering a tradition of rigorous philosophical debate.Controversially, Plato's ideas on governance, particularly his advocacy for philosopher-kings, have sparked extensive debate over the centuries. His vision of a society led by enlightened rulers contrasts sharply with democratic ideals, prompting discussions on the nature of power and leadership that resonate to this day.Plato's influence extends far beyond philosophy; his ideas have permeated literature, science, and political theory. Modern thinkers continue to grapple with his concepts, making him a timeless figure whose revolutionary ideas challenge and inspire across generations.
