Is it possible to truly define existence, or pinpoint the essence of any object or entity? These are the questions addressed in Plato's Sophist, a dialogue which takes on sophistry and Plato's own early theories in an attempt to reveal the true roots and limitations of human knowledge. Sophist is one of Plato's greatest dialogues, and Benjamin Jowett's English translation is one of the most highly regarded of its kind. As such it is essential reading for any serious scholar of Western philosophy.
