The Greek philosopher Plato was a disciple of Socrates and a teacher of Aristotle. He wrote on a wide variety of subjects, such as politics, aesthetics, cosmology and epistemology. To this day, we still refer to “Platonic Love” and “Platonic Ideals”. Plato’s search for truth and knowledge formed the basis of much of Western Philosophy.
