Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Plato's Gorgias: Literally Translated, With an Introductory Essay, Containing, a Summary of the Argument
One of the most marked characteristics of Plato's earlier and more dramatic dialogues, and one that I have been most anxious to preserve, is the perfect simplicity ease and familiarity with which the ideas are expressed and the conversation carried on: here there are no laboured antitheses, no balanced clauses.
