About Timaeus
Timaeus, written c. 360 BC, is one of Plato's dialogues, mostly in the form of long speeches by Timaeus and Critias. It is perhaps most noteworthy for its argument for the existence of a "craftsman" by Timaeus. The speech goes on to present cosmological speculations about a World Soul, the creation of the earth and the heavenly spheres, the created gods, man, and finally animals. The dialogue begins with a shorter speech by Critias, unrelated to the later cosmological themes, about the myth of Atlantis and an earlier golden age of Athens.
