In defense of the sophists

Why this book?... Continuing this series that has received interest and follow-up from specialists and groups interested in Western and philosophical thought; this part of Dr. Al-Tayeb Bou Oazza's project comes to form the first research in the Arabic language explicitly aimed at defending the Sophists, against the interpretation presented by Plato, then later, it became a dominant tradition even among major contemporary philosophers such as "Hegel" and "Zeller," and "Guthrie"... The value of this book lies in its novelty in presenting it, and its ability to explore the fragments of the Sophists, and critique the interpretation established by Plato by revealing the contradictions inherent in its content, and this interpretation has remained dominant not only over the Western figures previously mentioned but, of course, over Arabic writing in the history of Western philosophy. A study of the theses of Protagoras, Gorgias, Leucippus, Democritus, Hipparchus, Thrasymachus, Antiphon, and Critias.
