Transcriber’s Note and List of Contents
Several editions of Jowett’s translation of Plato’s Republic were published in his lifetime, and many since. This text attempts to capture all that is of value in the early versions. It is based largely on the third edition, “revised and corrected throughout,” of 1888, but incorporating the complete Stephanus numbering that is found only in a two-volume version published in 1908. Sources gratefully exploited include an earlier Project Gutenberg version (#1497), an html version at the Online Library of Liberty, the Internet Archive (file of the 1888 edition: a604578400platuoft.pdf; volume 1 of the 1908 edition, in.ernet.dli.2015.223394, volume 2, in.ernet.dli.2015.223395), reference material at Distributed Proofreaders, and Wikimedia Commons.
Page numbers for the 1888 edition are given in-text printed in red. Stephanus numbers are given in the right margin. Sidenotes are given in the left margin. Things may be different on a small width screen: sidenotes and page numbers are removed, the Stephanus numbers are included in the body of the text in green. This means that most, but not all, internal cross-references should still work.
The 1888 edition does not have a Table of Contents. The following listing provides hyperlinks to distinct sections of the work.
