Sophist
ByPublisher Description
Sophist – Plato
What separates truth from illusion—and how can we tell the difference?
In Sophist, Plato tackles one of philosophy’s most challenging questions: how to define the sophist, a master of persuasion who often blurs the line between truth and deception. Through a rigorous and methodical dialogue, Plato explores the nature of being, non-being, and falsehood.
Moving beyond simple definitions, this work dives deep into logic and metaphysics, revealing how language and perception can distort reality—and how philosophy seeks to clarify it.
Perfect for readers interested in philosophy, logic, and critical thinking, Sophist offers:
A deep exploration of truth, falsehood, and appearance
Insight into the nature of being and reality
One of Plato’s most analytical and structured dialogues
Timeless relevance in an age of misinformation
Challenging and intellectually rich, Sophist invites you to question not just what you hear—but what is real.
When truth can be imitated, how do we recognize it?
