República de Platão, Anel de Giges, desafio de Gláucon, poesia LíricaResumo
A narrativa de Giges aparece na República de Platão (359b-360b), quando Gláucon conta como Giges se tornou o governante da Lídia na Ásia Menor (Anatolia). O Desafio de Gláucon é a base para toda a exposição posterior sobre a justiça na República de Platão. Será através deste desafio que Gláucon pedirá a Sócrates para que ele prove que a justiça é, de toda maneira, melhor do que a injustiça. No entanto, na passagem 359d há uma dificuldade para identificar Giges. Através deste estudo, pretendemos apresentar algumas propostas para a passagem, usando para isto as fontes líricas e históricas para uma completa análise da passagem sobre Giges. No fim do artigo, nós propusemos uma interpretação da passagem para resolver o problema no manuscrito.
