Protagoras
ByPublisher Description
Protagoras – Plato
Can virtue be taught—or is it something we must discover for ourselves?
In Protagoras, Plato brings to life a dynamic and intellectually rich debate between Socrates and the famous sophist Protagoras. At the heart of their conversation lies a powerful question: is virtue something that can be taught, or is it an innate quality?
Through engaging dialogue, sharp reasoning, and vivid storytelling, Plato explores morality, education, and the nature of human excellence—offering insights that remain relevant in today’s world.
Perfect for readers of philosophy, ethics, and education, Protagoras offers:
A compelling debate on virtue and moral development
Insight into sophistry and Socratic philosophy
Engaging and accessible philosophical dialogue
Timeless questions about knowledge, teaching, and character
Lively, thought-provoking, and intellectually stimulating, Protagoras challenges you to rethink what it means to be good.
Is virtue something you learn—or something you become?
