The Atlantis Dialogue: Plato's Original Story of the Lost City, Continent, Empire
Editorial Reviews
Midwest Book Review, March 2002-- A
A good starting point for anyone wanting to learn more about the origins of the Atlantis myth.
Book Description
Atlantis was first introduced to world literature by the Greek philosopher Plato in two "dialogues" he wrote in the fourth century B.C. His tale of a great empire that sank beneath the waves has sparked thousands of years of debate over whether Atlantis really existed. But did Plato mean his tale as history, or just as a parable to help illustrate his philosophy?
In this book, you'll find everything Plato said about Atlantis, in the context he intended. Now you can read and judge for yourself!
