A translation of Plato's classic text on rhetoric. The "Gorgias" presents an intransigent argument that justice is superior to injustice - to the extent that suffering an injustice is preferable to committing an unjust act - and also includes discussions of major political themes. A general introduction on rhetoric from the Greeks to the present shows the problematic relation of rhetoric to philosophy and politics, states the themes that unite the two dialogues and outlines interpretive suggestions that are then developed more fully for each dialogue.
