Becoming just in Plato's Republic
Keywords:
Plato. Republic. Justice. Mimesis.Abstract
This article, entitled Becoming Just in Plato's Republic, is based on the dialogues found in books I and II, on the initial discussion of the theme of Justice. It seeks to describe the points of view of the characters presented there by Plato, taking into account the political and social context of the work, as well as the literary perspective in which Plato develops his narrative arc to present the concept of Justice initially in books I and II. Next, a presentation of the concept of mimesis in Plato's work is made, which serves as a hermeneutical key to the answer to becoming just in the Republic.
