The Atlantis Dialogue

The legend of Atlantis -- you've heard about it, read about it, seen it in videos, shows, and movies. Now go straight to the source!

Atlantis was first introduced by the Greek philosopher Plato in two "dialogues" he wrote in the fourth century B.C. His tale of a great empire that sank beneath the waves has generated countless books, dramatic adaptations, archeological expeditions, and more.

It has also sparked thousands of years of debate and speculation. Did Plato mean his tale as ancient history, or just as a parable to help illustrate his philosophy? Why did he break it off in the middle, never completing our sole primary account of this "lost" civilization? And why did Aristotle, Plato's student, once say of Atlantis, "He who invented it also destroyed it."

In "The Atlantis Dialogue," you'll find everything Plato wrote about Atlantis, in the context he intended. Now you can read it and judge for yourself!
