Plato's Studies in other Subjects


Even though I’m trying to focus on Plato’s contributions to math, he studied many other subjects as well. His most famous subject is politics. Plato recorded The Republic, which is his most famous dialogue. In The Republic he talked to his students about what makes an ideal government, and that a government should be centered around justice (Kraut, 311).
Plato, though it may seem weird, studied dance, music, and drama also (O'Connor, J. J., and E. F. Robertson)!
