"Republic (Plato) The Republic (, Politeia; Latin: Res Publica) is a Socratic dialogue, written by Plato around 380 BC, concerning justice (), the order and character of the just city-state, and the just man. It is Plato's best-known work, and has proven to be one of the world's most influential works of philosophy and political theory, both intellectually and historically. In the dialogue, Socrates discusses with various Athenians and foreigners about the meaning of justice and whether the just man is happier than the unjust man. They consider the natures of existing regimes and then propose a series of different,"

"Republic (Zeno) The Republic () was a work written by Zeno of Citium, the founder of Stoic philosophy at the beginning of the 3rd century BC. Although it has not survived, it was his most famous work, and various quotes and paraphrases were preserved by later writers. The purpose of the work was to outline the ideal society based on Stoic principles, where virtuous men and women would live a life of simple asceticism in an equal society. Written, it would seem, in conscious opposition to Plato's ""Republic"", Zeno's ""Republic"" (""politeia"") outlined the principles of an ideal state written from"

The ""Phaedrus"" was presumably composed around 370 BC, about the same time as Plato's ""Republic"" and ""Symposium"". Although ostensibly about the topic of love, the discussion in the dialogue revolves around the art of rhetoric and how it should be practiced, and dwells on subjects as diverse as metempsychosis (the Greek tradition of reincarnation) and erotic love. Socrates runs into Phaedrus on the outskirts of Athens. Phaedrus has just come from"

"""Republic"", attributed to a certain Taurus of Sidon, was probably written by Calvenus Taurus. All of Taurus's works are lost, except for some fragments of his commentaries on ""Timaeus"" and the ""Republic"". Like many Platonists, Taurus held the conviction that the world was eternal and un-created. From this he concluded that the account of creation in Plato's ""Timaeus"" was to be read as a metaphor, intended only as a didactic device. He considered various metaphoric readings of Plato's text and listed four non-temporal meanings of the word ""genētós"" (""created"", ""become""). He favored an interpretation in which the created nature of"

He wrote several books, two of which are mentioned by Eusebius of Caesarea, viz., a treatise on ""The Six Days of Creation"" and a work against the Marcionites, in which he dwelled upon the various opinions which divided them. Eusebius, upon whom we depend exclusively for our knowledge of Rhodo, quotes some passages from the latter work, in one of which an"

By the 1st century BC, there was an attempt among the Stoics to downplay the involvement which Cynic philosophy had played in the development of early Stoicism; it was said that Zeno had been ""young and thoughtless"" when he wrote his ""Republic"".

It is not discernible which was released first; most likely Aristophanes had heard an early form of the ""Republic"" before it was completed and used it as the basis for ""Assemblywomen"".
