I bet that's the most assigned translation of The Republic.

I don’t have any data to back that up, but I feel like it’s the one I see referenced as the “current translation.” I think it’s the least aesthetically enjoyable of the three I’ve read, and it’s not the one I was assigned in college, but I expect that more students use it than any other version.
