Plato Redivivus is a book written by Henry Neville in 1763. It is a political satire that takes the form of a dialogue between various characters, discussing the nature of government and political power. The title ''Plato Redivivus'' refers to the idea of Plato being reborn, as the characters in the dialogue attempt to apply his philosophy to contemporary political issues. The book is divided into three parts, each focusing on a different aspect of government: the monarchy, the aristocracy, and the democracy. Throughout the dialogue, the characters debate the merits and flaws of each system, ultimately concluding that a balance of power is necessary for a successful government. The book is notable for its use of humor and satire to critique the political establishment of its time, and has been praised for its wit and insight.Wherein, By Observations Drawn From Other Kingdoms And States, Both Ancient And Modern, An Endeavor Is Used To Discover The Present Politic Distemper Of Our Own, With Causes And Remedies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
