In this video lecture, I dive into one of the most influential works in Western philosophy, The Republic by Plato.

This text explores justice, politics, and the ideal society, but what fascinates me most is Plato’s examination of the human soul and the nature of truth.

In this lecture, I’ll walk you through the key themes of the book, including the allegory of the cave, the philosopher-king, and the theory of forms, while offering insights on how these ideas can still shape our understanding of justice and leadership today.

Whether you’re new to Plato or revisiting his work, this lecture will provide you with a clear roadmap to get the most out of The Republic and apply its timeless lessons to modern life.
