Not illustrated. 1906 edition. Excerpt: ... IX. PHILOSOPHY AND THE STATE I [Republic, V. 471 c to VI. 503 c] 471 c to AFTER this interlude Socrates can no longer postpone 474 a meeting the third and greatest of the 'three great waves' of the argument: All that has been said of the ideal state is excellent, and we can say a great deal more about it; but is it possible? Before revealing the paradoxical secret which he has got in store, Socrates makes some preliminary remarks on the relation of ideals generally to reality. An ideal, he tells us, is none the worse for being unrealizable. We started with asking, What is justice? and that means, What is justice in itself or as such? Now we must not expect any human being whom we call just to be, so to say, embodied justice, but must be content to regard justice as a -napibeiyna or pattern, to which the justest man approximates most nearly, but only approximates. In other words there will always be, in Plato's phraseology, a certain difference between things as they are in themselves (rd 8ma), and things as they come into existence in our actual experience (ra yiyv6ieva)1. 1 Ct, for example, 485 B. The same difference may be expressed as the difference between the ideal and the actual. Justice being of the nature of a pattern for human action, we may say boldly that what we decided to be the ideal community is the truth of human life; true human life would be as we have described it. All actual forms of human life are to a certain extent falsifications of the truth; they fall short of it. When we are asked to show the possibility of an ideal, we must first lay down that no ideal is actually possible, and that to expect it to be so is to misunderstand it. i-For it is in the nature of things that action should get less hold of the truth...

The Republic is Plato's most famous work and one of the seminal texts of Western philosophy and politics. The characters in this Socratic dialogue - including Socrates himself - discuss whether the just or unjust man is happier. They are the philosopher-kings of imagined cities and they also discuss the nature of philosophy and the soul among other things.

This book deploys an innovative narrative device to mount an exercise in (popular) political philosophy. It presents Plato as “the Reith Lecturer” bringing up to date his critique of democracy which he began more than two thousand years ago in The Republic. Three recent “unexpected” electoral outcomes (the Brexit Referendum in the UK, the Presidential Election in the USA in 2016, and the UK General Election in 2017) allow it to focus on populism and the role it plays in understanding the logic of democracy. The book relentlessly exposes its fundamental flaw as demagoguery, relying not on high abstract philosophical/political theorising but entirely on empirical data to back up his critique. Ironically, it shows that Orwell’s Newspeak is its tongue.

Excerpt from Plato's Republic When asked by Mr Magnus, the editor of this series, to write a little book on Plato's Republic, I was not disinclined from the task, but feared that the ground was already too much occupied. Not only Professor Jowett's monumental work, which may be beyond the reach of some readers, but Davies and Vaughan's translation, Mr Bosanquet's notes, the manual of the Dean of Christchurch, and the late R. L. Nettleship's able essay in Hellenica, seemed to supply all that was needed, whether for the student or the general reader. But I could not set my opinion against my publisher's, and I was encouraged to hope that I might still be able to say something worth printing on a subject which has been more or less familiar to me for fifty years. Since the greater part of the present volume was written, Mr Nettleship's lectures on the Republic have been posthumously issued. I was glad to find in them many of my own thoughts anticipated, and to recognise much else as valuable and striking. But as these lectures were delivered to classical students in the University of Oxford, their aim is in some ways different from that to which this smaller work has been directed.
