This book offers an original and detailed reading of Plato'sRepublic, one of the most influential philosophical works in the emergence of Western philosophy. The author discusses theRepublicin terms of discursive events and political acts. Plato's act is placed in the context of a politico-discursive crisis in Athens at the end of the fifth and the beginning of the fourth century B. C that gave rise to the dialogue's primary question, that of justice. The originality of Dr. Ophir lies in the way he reconstructs theRepublic'sdifferent spatial settings - utopian, mythical, dramatic and discursive - using them as the main thread of his interpretation. Against the background of Plato's critique of the organisation of civic-space in the Greekpolis, the author relates the spatial settings in the Plato text to each other. This provides a basis for a re-examination of the relationship between philosophy and politics, which Plato's work advocates, and which it actually enacted. | Plato's Invisible Cities by Adi Ophir, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
