  • The Roles of Solon in Plato's Dialogues
    The Roles of Solon in Plato’s Dialogues Dissertation Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Samuel Ortencio Flores, M.A. Graduate Program in Greek and Latin The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Bruce Heiden, Advisor Anthony Kaldellis Richard Fletcher Greg Anderson Copyrighy by Samuel Ortencio Flores 2013 Abstract This dissertation is a study of Plato’s use and adaptation of an earlier model and tradition of wisdom based on the thought and legacy of the sixth-century archon, legislator, and poet Solon. Solon is cited and/or quoted thirty-four times in Plato’s dialogues, and alluded to many more times. My study shows that these references and allusions have deeper meaning when contextualized within the reception of Solon in the classical period. For Plato, Solon is a rhetorically powerful figure in advancing the relatively new practice of philosophy in Athens. While Solon himself did not adequately establish justice in the city, his legacy provided a model upon which Platonic philosophy could improve. Chapter One surveys the passing references to Solon in the dialogues as an introduction to my chapters on the dialogues in which Solon is a very prominent figure, Timaeus- Critias, Republic, and Laws. Chapter Two examines Critias’ use of his ancestor Solon to establish his own philosophic credentials. Chapter Three suggests that Socrates re- appropriates the aims and themes of Solon’s political poetry for Socratic philosophy. Chapter Four suggests that Solon provides a legislative model which Plato reconstructs in the Laws for the philosopher to supplant the role of legislator in Greek thought.

The Seven Sages of Greece Search the GML advanced Sections in this Page Introduction: The Labyrinth of Wisdom The Seven Sages of Greece Thales Solon Chilon Pittacus Bias "… wisdom is a form of goodness, and is not scientific knowledge but Cleobulus another kind of cognition." (Aristotle, Eudemian Ethics 1246b, 35). Periander Anacharsis Myson Epimenides Pherecydes Table: Lists of the Seven Sages Notes and Sources of Quotations Introduction: The Labyrinth of Wisdom For a god wisdom is perhaps a divine meal to be swallowed at one gulp without need of mastication, and that would be the end of the story. The deities are known for their simplicity. The matter of human wisdom, however, could fill all archives on earth without ever exhausting itself. Humanity is notorious for its complexity. And men proudly say "Good things are difficult." But is wisdom a labyrinth, or "thinking makes it so"? And when did the saga of human wisdom begin and with whom? The Poet When humans contemplated Dawn for the first time, wisdom was the treasure of the poet alone. Of all men he was the wisest, for the gods had chosen his soul as receptacle of their confidences. Thus filled with inspiration divine, the poet knew better than any other man the secrets of the world. And since Apollo found more pleasure in leading the Muses than in warming his tripod, neither the inspiration of the Pythia nor that of seers could match the poet's wisdom.

  • Chilo of Sparta
    CHILO “NARRATIVE HISTORY” AMOUNTS TO FABULATION, THE REAL STUFF BEING MERE CHRONOLOGY “Stack of the Artist of Kouroo” Project Chilon of Sparta HDT WHAT? INDEX CHILO CHILON OF SPARTA 600-500 BCE During the 6th Century BCE (we actually don’t have any dating more specific than this) Bias (Βίας ο Πριηνεὺς) was born, a son of Teutamus of Priene. Bias would come to be regarded as one of the wisest of men and one example that has been offered of his wisdom is that, having taken some Messinian women as prisoners, he had them educated as if they were his own daughters and then sent them home to their fathers. ... PER DIOGENES LAËRTIUS Also alive during this century was the poet Cleobulus (Κλεόβουλος), a son of Evagoras of Lindos in Rhodes. ... PER DIOGENES LAËRTIUS Chilon (Χείλων) the son of Damagetus of Sparta lived at some point toward the beginning of this century. ... PER DIOGENES LAËRTIUS North Indian philosophers would introduce the idea of omnipotent male gods who occasionally would manifest themselves on earth, during times of turmoil. A Danubian cult of bread and wine known as Orphism (after Orphis, a Mycenaean poet who rowed through the Dardanelles with Jason and the Argonauts) or Dionysianism (after its principal deity) was spreading through Greece and Italy. As commonly practiced, Orphism was less a religion than a cult of sociability. Male pipers and female percussionists were widely associated its festivities, which were known as Bacchanalias. While its fetishes of bread and wine would survive in the Christian communion rites, and its revelries would become “Carnival,” its association with drunken orgies would be causing pipes and drums to become taboo at most orthodox Christian services.

  • Thales of Miletus1
    Thales of Miletus1 1 Thales – Life and Accomplishments LittleisknownofThales.Bornabout624BCinMiletus,AsiaMinor (now Turkey), he was the son of Examyes and Cleobuline. He died about 546 BC in Miletos, Turkey. The bust shown above is in the Capitoline Museum in Rome, but is not contemporary with Thales. Indeed, though there are statues and other images of significant people of the time, there is little assurance of their authenticity. Some impression and highlights of his life and work follow: 1 c 2000, G. Donald Allen ° Thales 2 Thales of Miletus was the first known Greek philosopher, scientist • and mathematician. Some consider him the teacher of Pythagoras, though it may be only be that he advised Pythagoras to travel to Egypt and Chaldea. From Eudemus of Rhodes (fl ca. 320 B.C) we know that he • studied in Egypt and brought these teachings to Greece. He is unanimously ascribed to have introduced the mathematical and astronomical sciences into Greece. He is unanimously regarded as having been unusally clever—by • general agreement the first of the Seven Wise Men2 , a pupil of the Egyptians and the Chaldeans. None of his writing survives and no contemporary sources exist; • thus, his achievements are difficult to assess, particularly his phi- losophy and mathematical discoveries. Indeed, many mathematical discoveries of this early period have been attributed to others, often centuries later. In addition one must consider the ancient practice of crediting particular discoveries to men with a reputation for wisdom. This is no doubt certainly true in Pythagoras’ case. There is, of course, the story, related by Aristotle, of his successful • speculation in olive oil presses after he had concluded there would be a bountiful harvest — as testament to his practical business acumen.

  • Wisdom from the Seven Sages Ncient Greek Legend Has It That in the Sixth Century BCE, There Were Seven Sages in Greece Who Served the God Apollo
    Wisdom from the Seven Sages ncient Greek legend has it that in the sixth century BCE, there were seven sages in Greece who served the God Apollo. According to the ancient tales, at least three of their Abest known sayings were inscribed at the Temple of Apollo at Delphi, together with the enigmatic and still unexplained great letter E.1 Several other cultures, including India and China, also had stories of seven mythic sages,2 suggesting a universal and archetypal quality to these philosophers and their sayings. Scholars today suggest that from a kernel of mythic stories and sayings of sages from Asia Minor and Greece, the initiates of the mystery schools of Delphi and other centers used these legends to inspire pilgrims and students of the mysteries, probably well established by the fifth century BCE. All were in one way or another associated with Delphi.3 While over the centuries many names have been proposed, the following are the most common, gathered from the writings of Plato (fifth-fourth centuries BCE), Plutarch (first-second centuries CE), Pausanias (second century CE ), Diogenes Laertius (ca. third century CE), and Clement of Alexandria (third century CE). They are listed below, along with a wise saying often associated with them in antiquity.4 After all the centuries, these ideas are still worthy of meditation. “Love Wisdom Deeply.” Bias of Priene “Nothing in Excess.” Chilon of Sparta “Young Women should be educated as well as Young Men.” Cleobulus of Rhodes “Realities were not created to fit arguments; arguments were made to fit the realities.” Myson of Chenae “Mercy is better than Revenge.” Pittacus of Mytilene “Speech reflects Action.” Solon of Athens “Know Thyself, and Thou shalt know the Universe and the Gods.” Thales of Miletus Endnotes 1 “Seven Sages of Greece” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Sages_of_Greece.
