Plato s Dream 1756 is a short story written in the 18th century by the France French philosopher and satirist Voltaire . Along with Voltaire s 1752 short story Microm gas , Plato s Dream is considered by many to be one of the earliest works in the genre of science fiction . Plato s Dream is a pointed philosophical criticism of religious doctrine, and though it is obscured by two layers of dramatic facade a dream contained within the framework of a famous and religiously tolerated personality of classical antiquity antiquity , Voltaire s intentions are quite clear. His story recounts a little known dream attributed to Plato , in which Demiurge Demiurgos , a god like entity referred to as the eternal geometer , charges a number of lesser superbeings with the task of creating their own worlds. Demogorgon , the being which ultimately creates the planet we know as Earth , is at first quite pleased with his creation, only to find his eminently imperfect handiwork the subject of ridicule by the other beings. However, the last laugh is had at Demiurgos himself, who is humiliated after declaring himself the only being capable of creating perfection as he was obviously the creator of the imperfect lesser superbeings.

The First Letter of Plato , also called Epistle I or Letter I , is an epistle that tradition has ascribed to Plato , though it is almost universally considered a literary forgery forgery . ref Hamilton and Cairns, Collected Dialogues , 1516 ref In the Stephanus pagination , it spans III. 309a 310b. The letter purports to have been written to Dionysius II of Syracuse Dionysius the Younger , the tyrant of Syracuse, Sicily Syracuse who was introduced to Plato by his uncle Dion tyrant of Syracuse Dion in the hopes of turning him to philosophy . It complains of Dionysius ingratitude for having rudely dismissed Plato after having received such great service from him in the administration of his government and returns the sum which he had provided for travelling expenses as insultingly insufficient. The letter concludes with a number of quotations from Theatre of ancient Greece The Tragedy tragic poets suggesting that Dionysius will die alone and friendless. Of the thirteen Epistles Plato Epistles tradition ascribes to Plato , the First Letter is the only one whose Authentication authenticity has not had a significant defender in modern times. ref Hamilton and Cairns, Collected Dialogues , 1516 ref R.

italic title The Second Letter of Plato , also called Epistle II or Letter II , is an epistle that tradition has ascribed to Plato , though some scholars consider it a literary forgery forgery . In the Stephanus pagination , it spans III. 310b 315a. The Second Letter is addressed to Dionysius II of Syracuse in response to a supposed complaint he lodged against Plato and his associates that they were slandering him. The letter disclaims any responsibility for these slanders and further denies that Plato has even heard of them occurring. It then counsels Dionysius that a concern for his reputation after his death should incline him to repair his relationship with Plato, since the interactions of political men with the wise is a topic of constant discussion. From this subject, the letter turns to an enigmatic discussion of the First, in which Plato warns Dionysius to never write these doctrines down and to burn this letter upon committing its contents to memory. The Second Letter is the source of the oft cited remark that no writing of Plato exists or ever will exist, but those now said to be his are those of a Socrates become beautiful and new . ref Plato, Epistle II , 314c ref R.

italic title The Ninth Letter of Plato , also called Epistle IX or Letter IX , is an epistle that is traditionally ascribed to Plato . In the Stephanus pagination , it spans III. 357d 358b. The letter is ostensibly written to Archytas of Taranto Tarentum , whom Plato met during his first trip to Sicily in 387 BC 387 BCE . Archytas had sent a letter with Archippus and Philonides, two Pythagoreanism Pythagoreans who had gone on to mention to Plato that Archytas was unhappy about not being able to get free of his public responsibilities. The Ninth Letter is sympathetic, noting that nothing is more pleasant than to attend to one s own business, especially when that business is the one that Archytas would engage in viz. philosophy . Yet everyone has responsibilities to one s fatherland , parents, and friends, to say nothing of the need to provide for daily necessities. When the fatherland calls, it is improper not to answer, especially as a refusal will leave politics to the care of worthless men. The letter then declares that enough has been said of this subject, and concludes by noting that Plato will take care of Echecrates , who is still a youth , for Archytas sake and that of Echecrates father, as well as for the boy himself. R. G. Bury describes the Ninth Letter as a colourless and commonplace effusion which we would not willingly ascribe to Plato, and which no correspondent of his would be likely to preserve he also notes certain peculiarities of diction which point to a later hand. ref Bury, Epistle IX, 591. ref A character by the name of Echecrates also ... have been called a youth by the time Plato met Archytas.

italic title The Twelfth Letter of Plato , also known as Epistle XII or Letter XII , is an epistle that tradition has ascribed to Plato , though it is almost certainly a literary forgery . Of all the Epistles Plato Epistles , it is the only one that is followed by an explicit denial of its Authentication authenticity in the manuscripts. In the Stephanus pagination , it spans 359c e of Vol. III. Like the Ninth Letter Plato Ninth Letter , the Twelfth Letter is purportedly addressed to Archytas . It thanks him for sending Plato some treatises, which it then goes on to praise effusively, declaring its author worthy of his ancestors and including in their number Myrians, colony colonists from Troy during the reign of Laomedon . It then promises to send to Archytas some of Plato s unfinished treatises. Diogenes Laertius preserves this letter in his Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers , as well as a letter from Archytas which presumably occasioned the Twelfth Letter ref Diogenes Laertius , Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers , Life of Archytus, iv ref This letter points to the treatises having been those of Ocellus Lucanus Ocellos of Lucania , a Pythagoreanism Pythagorean .
