What if your peace of mind was the highest form of wisdom?
In Charmides, Plato presents a timeless dialogue that gently peels back the layers of self-control, modesty, and knowledge. Socrates engages the charming and reflective youth Charmides in a quest to define "temperance"-a word that touches everything from our moral compass to our emotional balance.
Through careful questions and subtle insights, this modern audiobook brings to life a powerful but often overlooked dialogue-one that asks whether the truest form of strength lies in knowing, and governing, oneself.
What you'll discover inside:
• A subtle but profound inquiry into temperance, modesty, and inner harmony
• Socratic questioning at its most reflective, unraveling assumptions with grace
• A fresh look at the link between virtue and knowledge
• A translation that retains the poetic charm and intellectual clarity of the original
Whether you're seeking calm in a chaotic world or pondering the nature of self-discipline, Charmides is a philosophical mirror worth holding up to the soul.
