In this episode, we continue our journey through the full text of Plato's Gorgias. The text is the one from Project Gutenberg, translated by Benjamin Jowett, which you can find here:

https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/1672

Since this is a long text, I have divided it into what I call "Parts" 1 through 4 (note that these divisions are not in the original text, nor in Jowett's translation).

In this, Part 2, Plato addresses Polus, one of the pupils of Gorgias, the famous Sophist rhetorician.

I hope you enjoy it.
