Summary: In Plato's Republic books II and III, Plato examines the poets' methods and their effects before the public, and in doing so concludes that they are not compatible with his educational goal, as they oppose his ethical conception and political project. However, when we read the poem Works and Days, we find a discourse that seeks to ground human action in an absolute conception of justice. And precisely because of this, it provides an important background for the construction of the conception of justice present in the Republic. Hence, this dissertation intends to establish parallelisms between the conception of justice of the poet Hesiod and the one Plato presents in the Republic with the objective of determining if, in fact, the poet's conception is so opposed to that of the philosopher as he presents it in the mentioned dialogue.
