Ebook: The Education of the Young in The Republic of Plato

— Cambridge, University Press, 1901. — 221 p.The present volume is intended to bring before English readers the description and theory of education for the young which is found in the earlier books of Plato's Republic. The volume ends with the account of a commonwealth considered as a moral organism, which explains the reason and purpose of that earlier education. It must be understood that here we have before us only a portion of the educational scheme, and only the preface to the philosophical conceptions, which Plato sets forth in the Republic as a whole. And this volume may possibly serve, to some readers, as an introduction to a completer study of the Republic and of Plato's ideas.Introduction
