A review by davidmencik
Timée by Plato
4.0
This book is masterpiece of philosophy and most of the reviews are about Atlantis. I mean who cares about Atlantis when you get to read about Plato's vision of creation of Cosmos. The ideas of Demiourgos, Time as the "movable" eternity (I read dialogue in Serbian translation and am not sure if the term movable is right). Matter as the third being that is capable of accepting any form.
It is also worth mentioning the fact that Timaeus was in fact the most influential Plato's dialogue until only couple of hundred years ago. In Raphaelo Santi's painting "The school of Athens" Aristotle is holding in his hand "Metaphysics" and Plato is carrying Timaeus.
