About this listen
Timaeus: Where science, philosophy, and the soul meet—the creation of the world according to Plato
This dialogue is a must-listen for anyone interested in ancient philosophy, cosmology, or metaphysics. Timaeus invites listeners to reflect on the deeper questions of life, existence, and the universe’s origins.
This new edition features:
- Plato's early years.
- A glimpse into the renowned Academy at Athens.
- His relationship with Socrates.
- Plato's extensive writings.
In Timaeus, the ancient philosopher Plato presents a fascinating dialogue about the creation of the universe and the nature of reality. The book centers around a character named Timaeus, who offers a detailed explanation of how the world came to be. According to Timaeus, the universe was created by a divine craftsman who shaped it using a blend of order and reason, bringing the chaos of the world into a harmonious, beautiful existence. This dialogue explores deep questions about the physical world, the soul, and the cosmos, offering a blend of science, philosophy, and metaphysics.
Timaeus also discusses the structure of the soul, the role of the elements in shaping life, and the connection between the material world and higher forms of knowledge. Plato's ideas lay the groundwork for many later philosophical and scientific theories about the nature of the universe. It’s a thought-provoking exploration of how we understand existence, creation, and the universe around us.

Monotonous Narrator
N.B. I received a free copy via freeaudiobookcodes.com. I wasn't a huge fan of the narrator as he was too monotone and the dialogue portion was quite difficult to follow as the narrator didn't distinguish between the two characters except via terse character names before their portion. Additionally, there were sections where the narrator just kept saying "greek" or "jew" that seemed to be out of place entirely, but unsure if that's an issue with the translation or the narration.
