{"product_id":"euthyphro","title":"Euthyphro","description":"\u003cp\u003eHave you ever wondered why we struggle to define what is truly “good” or “holy”? In Euthyphro, Plato presents a foundational work in Western philosophy that raises profound and enduring questions about the nature of morality, justice, and divine will. Through a sharp, ironic, and illuminating conversation between Socrates and the self-assured religious expert Euthyphro, the dialogue exposes the difficulty—and perhaps impossibility—of arriving at absolute definitions of virtue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet just before Socrates’ own trial, the dialogue explores what it means to be pious, whether moral truths can be known through divine revelation, and how critical thinking can unravel the contradictions in seemingly obvious ideas. This modern, accessible translation preserves the brilliance of Plato’s original Greek while making the philosophical arguments approachable for today’s reader.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you’ll discover in this modern edition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Deep Dive Into the Foundations of Ethics Explore the classic dilemma: Is morality dependent on divine approval or inherent to reason?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn Accessible Conversation Format Follow the witty and challenging exchange between Socrates and Euthyphro as they examine what it truly means to be pious.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Key Prelude to Socrates’ Trial Understand how this dialogue sets the stage for the events of Apology, revealing Socratic irony and courage in the face of injustice.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTimeless Philosophical Reflections Question the assumptions we hold about morality, truth, and the authority of religious or social norms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for Students and Thinkers Alike Whether you're new to philosophy or revisiting it with new eyes, Euthyphro offers an unforgettable introduction to Socratic method and ethical reasoning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Library of Alexandria","offers":[{"title":"eBook","offer_id":58289340416348,"sku":"LOA-C1088-EB","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audiobook — Coming soon","offer_id":58289340449116,"sku":"LOA-C1088-AU","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":58289340481884,"sku":"LOA-C1088-PB","price":4.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":58289340514652,"sku":"LOA-C1088-HC","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/9442\/8764\/files\/1088_Euthyphro__standard__ebook__pages-38__trim-6x9in__1800x2700px.jpg?v=1784150298","url":"https:\/\/libraryofalexandria.com\/fr\/products\/euthyphro","provider":"The Library of Alexandria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
