During the Classical period of Ancient Greece he was based in Athens where he founded his Academy and created the Platonist school of thought.

Reviews for Alcibiades I

[danielstj · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

A great Platonic dialogue. If you are looking for one with power and aplomb, this is one of them. I recommend it for those interested in Plato and in ancient Greek philosophy.
