The aim this work is to investigate in what sense is it possible to conceive of the pleasure in view of eudaimonia in the search for the Good in the Philebus Plato's dialogue. The platonic’s thought about pleasure takes different positions in different dialogues, ranging from a suspicious look, to finally have his deeply discussed and recognized place in the good life. Therefore, we must first turn to the tradition that precedes Plato, since the theme of pleasure recurs in Greek thought, and in turn filled with questions that also permeate platonic philosophy. In this sense, firstly Classical Greece will be visited, since the traditional culture conceived its foundations in the corners and epic poems, lyrical and tragic, and these in turn, the pleasure is a theme often, where there is a constant concern in living a pleasant life. Yet in order to understand the pleasures to the Platonic thought, it will be a brief investigation in Empedocles and Democritus physical. Then the different postures for the pleasure in Plato will be raised, to finally reach the Philebus, with the necessary luggage for better understanding of this topic often discussed. Thus, Plato extends its investigation into the pleasures through dialectics, in order to identify the place of pleasure in eudaimonica life.
