    Plato

    Plato (aprox. 424-327 BC), a student of Socrates and the teacher of Aristotle, is commonly regarded as the centermost figure of Western philosophy.

His works are among the most influential in Western history, commanding interest and challenging readers of every era and background since they were composed.
