Document Summary

Thrasymachus is out of dialogue and tells socrates that he was making him look bad on purpose and how he probably cheated in the inal rebutal. Glaucon wants the conversaion extended because he wants to accept socrates" argument that jusice is beter than injusice, but not convinced yet. Adeimantus wants the conversaion extended because he is troubled by the eiciency of the appearance of virtue as opposed to the possession of virtue in and of itself. The atainment of the good is not consequent on the rewards (money, honor, presige) it might entail (glaucon coninues) that each of two men possesses a magic ring that enables each man to become invisible. One of these men is a just man; the other is unjust. The men"s invisibility-at-will enables them to do whatever they want, take whatever they want, seize any opportunity at will.
