This audiobook delves into four significant Dialogues attributed to Plato, showcasing Socratic discussions that explore themes of justice, beauty, and societal roles. The recording begins with "Alcibiades I," where Socrates interrogates the overconfident young Alcibiades on crucial moral issues. It follows with two Dialogues featuring the vain Sophist Hippias, highlighting his confrontations with Socrates on wit and beauty. The final piece, "Menexenus," offers a rare glimpse into Athenian society, framed by insightful commentary from Benjamin Jowett and brought to life by David Rintoul's portrayal of Socrates.
