About “Hipparchus”
The Hipparchus is a dialogue attributed to the classical Greek philosopher Plato. In this work, Socrates engages in a discussion to define the term "love of gain." The dialogue follows the style of Plato's other works, where Socrates seeks to clarify a concept through conversation. The specific term under consideration is "philokerdēs," which translates to "love of gain" in the original text. The dialogue is part of a collection of works attributed to Plato, though its authenticity is sometimes debated. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
