{"product_id":"plato-von-steven-nadler","title":"Plato","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA new reading of Plato's philosophy that reveals it as deeply shaped by his experiences in Athens.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Plato is a key figure from the beginnings of Western philosophy, yet the impact of his lived experience on his thought has rarely been explored. Born during a war that would lead to Athens' decline, Plato lived in turbulent times. Carol Atack explores how Plato's life in Athens influenced his thought, how he developed the Socratic dialogue into a powerful philosophical tool, and how he used the institutions of Athenian society to create a compelling imaginative world. Accessibly written, this book shows how Plato made Athens the place where diverse ideas were integrated into a new way of approaching the big questions about our lives, then and now.\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9781789149463\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Civic Life\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9781789149463","offer_id":58344394457413,"sku":"9781789149463","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/0b19db2e-ac91-4085-a512-be5ff34df7f9.jpg?v=1782190020","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/plato-von-steven-nadler","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
