Sorry to butt in but my focus in college was ancient Mediterranean history with a focus on classic literature and philosophy

I agree with Vlady that the Republic is a must read tor Plato, but you should first start with The Symposium. It's a good introduction to the style of writing Plato was known for and also it's a much easier read with a good story and fun drunken shenanigans while also still obviously dealing with philosophical workings

Also probably my second favorite book of all time. I absolutely love his made up myth on the nature of love in that work. It's such a funny yet interesting way to describe a unique view on the subject
