Penguin Classics
The Republic
50.00 ₾The Republic by Plato (Penguin Classics) — one of the most important texts in Western civilisation, this edition’s direct prose makes Plato’s foundational questions about justice, governance, education, and the soul feel immediately urgent and alive. The Allegory of the Cave, the concept of philosopher-kings, and the critique of democracy — all as relevant today as they were in ancient Athens.
Antigone
15.00 ₾Antigone by Sophocles (Penguin Classics) — one of the most performed and philosophically rich plays in the Western dramatic tradition. Antigone’s defiance of Creon’s edict to bury her brother dramatises the irreconcilable claims of conscience and the state. Two and a half millennia old and still morally urgent. Essential world drama.
The Apology of Socrates
16.00 ₾The Apology of Socrates by Plato (Penguin Classics) — Socrates’ defence at his trial in Athens, 399 BC. Facing death with irony and complete moral courage, he refuses to abandon his philosophical mission. At under sixty pages, one of the most rewarding texts in Western philosophy. Trans. Hugh Tredennick.
Othello
46.00 ₾Othello by William Shakespeare (Penguin Classics) — one of the most psychologically intense of the great tragedies. Othello’s destruction by the brilliant malice of Iago — one of literature’s most fascinating villains — remains devastating in every era. With scholarly introduction and notes.
Essays and Aphorisms
60.00 ₾Essays and Aphorisms by Arthur Schopenhauer (Penguin Classics) — his most accessible writing: witty, direct reflections on suffering, happiness, women, books, and death. Schopenhauer is among the most quotable of all philosophers. This Penguin Classics selection, translated by R.J. Hollingdale, is the ideal introduction to a thinker who influenced Nietzsche, Freud, and Wagner.
The Joyous Science
50.00 ₾The Joyous Science by Friedrich Nietzsche (Penguin Classics) — the work in which he first announced the death of God and introduced the eternal recurrence. Written 1882–87, this collection of aphorisms and reflections is among his most stylistically adventurous: a restless intelligence grappling with the collapse of Western certainty. Trans. R.J. Hollingdale.
The Symposium
35.00 ₾The Symposium by Plato (Penguin Classics) — one of the most beautiful discussions of love in Western literature. A series of speeches at an Athenian dinner party, culminating in Socrates’ account of Diotima’s teaching that erotic desire is the soul’s longing for immortality and truth. Translated by Christopher Gill.
Meditations
25.00 ₾Meditations by Marcus Aurelius (Penguin Classics) — the private journal of the Emperor of Rome. Stoic reflections on what is in our power, the impermanence of things, and the obligation to act justly. Two thousand years old and still one of the most useful works of philosophy ever written. Translated by Maxwell Staniforth.
The Republic
60.00 ₾The Republic by Plato (Penguin Classics) — one of the most important texts in Western thought. Home to the Allegory of the Cave, the concept of philosopher-kings, and the foundational critique of democracy. Two and a half millennia old and still indispensable. Desmond Lee’s standard translation.
Timaeus and Critias
46.00 ₾Timaeus and Critias by Plato (Penguin Classics) — his cosmological creation myth and the only ancient source for the legend of Atlantis. Timaeus shaped Christian theology and medieval cosmology; Critias describes the island civilisation destroyed for abandoning virtue. Translated by Desmond Lee.
The Laws
55.00 ₾The Laws by Plato (Penguin Classics) — his last and most pragmatic work on legislation and constitutional design. More practical than the Republic, it addresses education, religion, and the full social organisation required for a good state. The fullest expression of Plato’s mature political thought. Translated by Trevor Saunders.
Human, All Too Human
46.00 ₾Human, All Too Human by Friedrich Nietzsche (Penguin Classics) — the turning point in his philosophy, from Romantic idealism to rigorous psychological analysis. Dedicated to Voltaire, this collection of aphorisms examines morality, religion, and art with unsentimental clarity. Translated by Marion Faber.
Either/Or: A Fragment of Life
50.00 ₾Either/Or by Søren Kierkegaard (Penguin Classics) — the founding document of existentialism. Two complete worldviews — aesthetic and ethical — constructed through pseudonymous authors, with the reader left to choose. The ‘Diary of a Seducer’ is among its most celebrated passages. Translated by Alastair Hannay.
The Politics
50.00 ₾The Politics by Aristotle (Penguin Classics) — one of the foundational texts of Western political thought. Aristotle’s systematic analysis of the state, government, and political flourishing, drawing on the study of 158 Greek city-states, has shaped political theory from Aquinas and Machiavelli to the present. Translated by T.A. Sinclair.
