Plato was a philosopher in Classical Greece and the founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world. He is widely considered the most pivotal figure in the development of philosophy, especially the Western tradition.

Its discussion of the perfect city and the perfect mind laid the foundations for Western culture and, for over 2,000 years, has been the cornerstone of Western philosophy.

Traducendo alcuni Moralia e alcuni libri di Detti memorabili Carlo Carena, in questo suo ultimo lavoro che viene pubblicato purtroppo postumo, ha messo a punto un volume che rappresenta la summa dei pensieri di Plutarco sul tema della politica.
