Psychological Dimensions of Socratic Protreptic by Roberto Bradizza A Psychological Dimensions of Socratic Protreptic By Roberto Bradizza A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in Philosophy in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston Ontario, Canada April, 2012 Copyright © Roberto Bradizza, 2012 Abstract My goal in the present work is to add to our understanding of Socratic protreptic. I do so by focussing on psychological traits and qualities of character in Socrates’ young associates. There are a number of candidates throughout the dialogues whose colourful depiction and careful psychological rendering offer us ample material for study. In this study, I focus on two characters in particular. First, I look at the presentation of Alcibiades in the final scene of Symposium. Here I explore how Plato uses hubris and shame to explain the failure of protreptic in this gifted Socratic associate. Next, I look at Theaetetus as presented in the eponymously named dialogue. His characterization as an able, intelligent and model candidate for philosophy gives us a penetrating insight into the Socratic ideal. Finally, I offer a reading of Eros in Phaedrus that examines the psychological dynamic between the lover and his beloved. While a number of types of lovers are envisioned in this dialogue, I argue that if a beloved is to succeed in turning toward philosophy his lover must be a philosophical lover motivated by other- regarding care for his beloved’s soul. ii Acknowledgements I would like to express my appreciation to Dr. Jon Miller for his supervision of this dissertation. I have benefitted from his sage advice and criticism at every stage. But for his support, this work likely would not have come to fruition. In this regard, I would like to acknowledge too, Prof. Stephen Leighton both for his personal support and in his capacity as second reader. It was his input and early suggestions that helped bring focus to this project. Thanks also to the members of the examination committee, Dr. Philip Mitsis, Dr. George Bevan and Dr. Henry Laycock for their questions, comments and suggestions. I am pleased too, to acknowledge Dr. Joseph Novak of the University of Waterloo for his role in fostering my early interest in Socratic Studies, and for his crucial contribution at the start of this dissertation process—Grazie Professore! My sincere thanks to all of my friends and colleagues at the Queen’s Philosophy Department, especially to Dr. David Bakhurst; Dr. Paul Fairfield; Dr. Nancy Salay; Dr. Mark C.R. Smith and Dr. Rahul Kumar. Thanks also to departmental assistants Judy Vanhooser and Marilyn Lavoie for their expertise and care. Without the friends and family who have stood by me, this long road would have been a much more taxing journey. It is with affection that I acknowledge their many years of moral support. To my very good friend Chris Barr, to my brother, Dr. Lou Bradizza and my sister Dr. Clara Bradizza, I offer a special note of thanks. With deep gratitude, I wish to recognize the efforts of my mother Maria and my late father Giuseppe for their life-long devotion to the education of their children. Hvala vam za sve što ste učinili za mene. Finally, to my wife Dr. Arawn Therrien, words can hardly convey my gratitude for her patience and singular support. She has been my biggest champion; her faith in me gave me confidence when it was most needed. Her love has strengthened and sustained me throughout. To my children Dylan and Sofia, who by their love have taught me more things than were dreamt of in my philosophy, I humbly offer this dissertation as an example of getting one’s homework done. And yes, I can come and play now. iii For Arawn, Dylan and Sofia iv Chapter One: Protreptic and Psyche Overview 1 I Dialogue and Psyche A. Introduction 4 B. The Relevance of Character 5 C.

It is not a work devoted to analyzing protreptic arguments themselves, but instead is concerned with understanding how an interlocutor’s character traits contribute to the success or failure of protreptic. After all, if philosophical protreptic were capable of achieving its aim solely through the force of rational persuasion, we should rightly suppose that any well-conceived and logically sound exhortation ought to handily accomplish its task. Take for instance, an argument attributed to Aristotle from Protrepticus: “If you should philosophize, you should philosophize, and if you shouldn’t philosophize, then you should philosophize. Therefore in all cases you should philosophize” (Westerink 1962, xx). Success in coming-to-philosophy certainly depends on the persuasiveness of such protreptic arguments, but from a Socratic perspective it requires something more: it demands (as I shall argue), a sympathetic philosophical psyche endowed with the intellect, ability and nature necessary for protreptic to take firm root. Rather than survey a large number of dialogues in an attempt to divine a set of psychological qualities that either draw one toward or away from philosophy, I have chosen to focus closely on three dialogues: Theaetetus, Symposium and Phaedrus. Indeed, in each case my treatment centres on specific sections of text. In looking at Symposium, I have limited the larger part of my analysis to the Alcibiades’ Symposium speech. Though it has been the subject of much commentary, the viewpoint argued-for here is that shame and hubris are at the root of Alcibiades’ spectacular failure in turning toward philosophy. My analysis of Theaetetus deals 1 with aspects of the dialogue that illuminate the psyche of the young man at the centre of the drama. In the Platonic corpus there is no more complete example of a young interlocutor who, by his character and qualities of mind, is held out as an ideal candidate for the philosophical life. Finally, I look at Phaedrus. Here I examine how a beloved’s success in turning toward philosophy is dependent on his lover’s conception of eros.

  • Impact of Action Research Teams on Administrators' Implementation
    IMPACT OF ACTION RESEARCH TEAMS ON ADMINISTRATORS’ IMPLEMENTATION AND TEACHERS’ PERCEPTION OF THE TEACHER KEYS EFFECTIVENESS SYSTEM by KEVIN PAUL CARPENTER (Under the Direction of Sheneka Williams) ABSTRACT This action research (AR) case study addresses the effectiveness of the feedback administrators provide to teachers under the Teacher Keys Effectiveness System (TKES). AR teams explored techniques to improve feedback to help teachers improve their instructional practices within teacher and leader efficacy and professional school structures lenses. To evaluate the AR process, the following questions drove the study: 1. How effective is the action research process in empowering the team’s ability to find a solution to an evaluation system problem? 2. How can teachers influence the feedback process, and in what ways does feedback inform teachers’ practices? 3. How do administrators increase their capacity to give actionable feedback? Under the guidance of action research, two teams examined administrator feedback in the TKES platform and the professional learning resources leaders used to improve their evaluation practices. Findings included the following: teachers desire to see consistency in feedback that includes commendations and recommendations, administrators should change an evaluation score if the teacher provides evidence, teachers change their instruction if the feedback is purposeful, relevant, and convincing, and action research teams should include teachers from different grade levels and content areas to be effective as

Almost every political plat­ Aform in the 2008 Morehouse College polit­ ical elections was based around "change." The question I asked myself is, "When will the need for change end?" It's difficult to comprehend how multiple candidates can preach how a new change is in order on an annual basis. Either their predecessors have not met adequate standards; these new political headliners have such inno­ vative ideas or its all politics as usual. Although extensive research has not been done, it is pretty certain that student elections have gone on for years. Many changes have been implemented through the election of student officials, but there is only so much change that can occur over a period of time. The problem with many of these "change" platforms is that they under­ mine the work of the antecedents. Barack Obama never debilitates the works of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in his campaign. So, why does a man have to cripple the accom­ plishments-or lack of-of the man holding the office before him by emphasizing how much "change" he will implement? I guess one must do whatever it takes to become a class officer these days. The interesting thing about these elec­ tions is how it allows for so many different words to say the same thing.

  • Tensions in the Greek Symposium Julia Burns Submitted in Fulfillment
    Conflicting Desires and Unstable Identities: Tensions in the Greek Symposium Julia Burns Submitted in Fulfillment of the Prerequisite for Honors in Classical Studies May 2013 ©2013 Julia Burns I. Introduction The Greek symposium, or private drinking party, was a formal context for the consumption of wine, often accompanied by the enactment of ritual activities or other associated forms of entertainment.1 The tradition of symposia seems to have evolved from group feasts in the Archaic period and from the traditional gathering of hetaireiai in the late Archaic period.2 Generally, men would congregate in the andron of a private home and recline on kline for a night of drinking, singing or poetry composition, discussion, or other games.3 While meals that shared aspects of the Archaic symposium were held in public spaces in Athens by the fifth century, symposia remained the preserve of the elites: the aristocracy had a monopoly on sympotic symbolic capital, despite any popularizing elements of polis-wide feasting.4 The term “symposium” is often used synecdochically for the series of ritual activities that takes place over the course of a single gathering; however, it more accurately relates to the time when wine was consumed during a private party. If food was prepared before the drinking began, this meal, the deipnon, was a distinct and separate ritual element of the party.5 After the consumption of food, a hymn was sung in honor of the gods and libations were poured. At this point, the master of ceremonies, called the symposiarch, would decide the proper ratio at which 1 I would like to thank Kate Gilhuly for her support and invaluable comments on drafts of this paper.

Petrie, Committee Co-Chair Charles Guarnaccia, Committee Member Vicki L. Campbell, Chair of the Department of Psychology David Holdeman, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences Victor Prybutok, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Nguyen, Thomas. Neurocognitive Effects of Gist Reasoning Training in Student-Athletes with Concussions, ADHD, and Learning Disabilities. Doctor of Philosophy (Counseling Psychology), August 2017, 94 pp., 5 tables, references, 154 titles. Concussions, attention-deficit disorder (ADHD), and learning disabilities can adversely impact learning and academic achievement, particularly with respect to attention, memory, and executive functioning; fortunately, cognitive training can be beneficial and remediating these weaknesses. One such program, strategic memory advanced reasoning training (SMART), utilizes a top-down approach to train individuals in executive, higher-ordered thinking strategies including strategic attention, integration, and innovation to facilitate information synthesis and enhance cognitive efficiency. Thus, the purpose of the study is to examine whether SMART improved performances on various neuropsychological measures tapping into attention, processing speed, memory, and executive functioning for college student-athletes with neurological conditions (e.g., concussions, ADHD, LD).

  • Performance and Visual Culture in Etruria: 7Th 2Nd Century BC
    Performance and Visual Culture in Etruria: 7th - 2nd Century BC Stephanie Anne Layton Marietta, Georgia Bachelor of Arts, The George Washington University, 2003 Master of Arts, Florida State University, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy McIntire Department of Art University of Virginia December 2013 © Copyright by Stephanie Anne Layton All rights Reserved December 2013 Abstract The Etruscan iconographic record is the primary source of information regarding performance activities, which include dance, music, gaming, ritual, spectacle, and athletics. In this study, performance theory is used as a framework for analyzing Etruscan material culture related to emically constructed and provisionally identified performance activities and ascertaining their meaning. Although evidence for Etruscan cultural activity, beliefs, and social interaction is limited, especially given the paucity of textual information, the application of performance theory to the archaeological record provides a means to analyze public and private transmission of messages, relationships, experiences, and cultural behaviors primarily in funerary and civic contexts. Although numerous Etruscan performances have been investigated individually by prior scholarship, performance theory has not been previously applied to Etruscan art and architecture and, therefore, this work takes a new approach towards the analysis of the archaeological record. Evidence included in this study dates between the 8th -2nd centuries BC and consists of wall painting, painted and relief vase decoration, stone and terracotta relief sculpture, engraved gems, and bronze mirrors, decorative attachments, figurines, and vessels. It is only through the study of such varied materials from a wide chronological range that a more complete understanding of Etruscan performance emerges.

    FREE THE RATIONAL MALE PDF Rollo Tomassi | 302 pages | 01 Oct 2013 | Createspace Independent Publishing Platform | 9781492777861 | English | United States The Rational Male - Positive Masculinity by Rollo Tomassi Some of it might end you hating women instead of realizing how they work. However, in this rational male summary, I will only put my thoughts of it at the The Rational Male of the post and highlighted in between. Disclaimer : I still recommend reading the whole book. You might get the message wrong. See it as a glimpse into it or to cement your buying decision. It basically revolves around desire and power dynamics which have been shifted to the feminine in our society. Being a man is not inherently bad. The Rational Male book goes over the reasons why that is. Why women go for jerks, even though they always say differently. It teaches you the necessary information about both sexes and how to navigate the sexual marketplace. Plus, mistakes you have been making in your approach and living with women in general. This term describes a man being obsessed with one woman which a lot of guys seem to have these days. In short: There are almost 4 billion women out there, why do you think only this one will do? And a lot of guys fall into that trap with just a random woman they happen to get into, just because she probably took a few facials, he feels like she is the one. The secret to relationships lies in one simple power dynamic which has been touched by other Authors multiple times: The person with the least interest in the relationship has the power.
