The Republic by Plato - Free Audiobook

Listened to this and see it as the first attempt to put the crudeness of society through a refinery process, for others to perhaps see a clearer picture of the workings of our collective psych.. alongside the pillars of modern day religion and thought.. I got caught on a couple of things in particular, we are all born from Mother Earth and as such we are 8 billion all suckling from her bosom.. and allowing the friction of comparison to strike a spark so that a light may be cast... well worth a listen especially as Patrick’s tone is such that you could be listening live...

Dont know what davloos joke is, or what download he was listening to, but this is the internet at its very best. Someone who loves something putting a HUGE amount of effort and talent into a task, and then sharing it. Read the book along with the excellent reading (you really will think there is a cast greater than 1) and the whole thing comes to life. A brilliant resource and one that will bring me weeks of pleasure. Thank you sir.

Superbly read, brings the conversation of the Republic to life. With listen to many times over I'm sure!

As an undergraduate Politics and IR student, I've found this podcast to be indispensable! The book is read with such passion and vigour, it amazes me that it was released for free. The reader clearly has a great love for the book, and this is evidenced by the skill he shows in drawing out all of the subtle nuances present in the text. So, particularly if you're looking for a fantastic introduction to political philosophy, look no further than here. You won't be disappointed!
