Plato lived in turbulent times, born during a war that led to Athens’ defeat and decline. He grew up in a restored democracy, one that eventually condemned and executed his teacher, Socrates.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCarol Atack considers how Plato’s life in Athens influenced his thinking, how he developed the Socratic dialogue into a powerful philosophical tool and how he used the institutions of Athenian society to create a compelling imaginative world.
