Τίμαιος, Τόμος Α by Plato

"Τίμαιος, Τόμος Α" by Plato is a philosophical dialogue written around 360 BC. Through the voice of Timaeus, the work explores the nature and origin of the physical universe and humanity itself. A divine craftsman—the demiurge—brings order from chaos, modeling the cosmos after eternal forms. The dialogue examines why the universe exists as a single, living, intelligent whole, and what causes both its beauty and its imperfections. This cosmic account follows Socrates' description of an ideal state and precedes the story of Atlantis. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
