Im writing an essay, I just need the main points of his argument against it. So far I have:
- Democracy was the reason for Socrates death, whom Plato loved.
- The time he was growing up Athens, a Democractic state, lost the war against its neighbour Sparta. This didn't please Plato with the politics of his home.
I got some his texts, and a complete works book plus other texts on Plato, if you could give me the main points, Ill try and find them in my books. Does anybody know which parts of Karl Poppers book to refer to as an argument against Plato's Republic? - whomever answers this one stands a chance of being picked for top answer. If you desire the points.
