- Abstract
In this article, it is investigated whether there is a parallel between the depictions of the philosopher-king and the depictions of the god (Demiurgos) in the Timaeus dialogue. This specific question which I will try to answer is related to another question, namely whether there is a parallel between the image of God and the image of the philosopher in Plato's dialogues. For these purposes, passages selected from the Republic and Timaeus dialogues will be evaluated comparatively and in the light of specific themes. The article is structured into three basic arguments. The first argument is that the ideals are models. The second argument is the manager, who manages according to the ideal, is the absolute good. And the final argument is that the management is to provide standard, order, and harmony. Regarding these three central points, the similarity between the Republic and Timaeus will be exhibited.
