Gorgias (Theater of the Mind)

Agora Publications presents unabridged oral and written versions of Plato?s dialogs in contemporary English.
Gorgias of Leontini, a famous teacher of rhetoric, has come to Athens to recruit students, promising to teach them how to become leaders in politics and business. A group has gathered to hear Gorgias demonstrate the power of his art. This dialog blends comic and serious discussion about the best human life, providing a penetrating examination of ethics.
Is it better to suffer evil or to do evil? Is it better to do something wrong and avoid being caught or to be caught and punished? Is pleasure the same as goodness? As the characters in the dialog pursue these questions, the foundations of ethics and the nature of the good life come to light. Gorgias was written not only for the 4th century BC, but for all time.
