XVIII, 2006 ISSN 1224-9688 PLATO’S SOCRATES AND THE NATURE OF MORAL KNOWLEDGE Przemyslaw PACZKOWSKI Institute of Philosophy, University of Rzeszów, Poland Abstract The study concerns Socrates of Plato’s dialogues, the literary character, for which, however, there is no serious alternative in the surviving literature. Plato’s Socrates is the figure which is a paradigmatic embodiment of the philosophical life and whose attitude enabled Plato to disclose the nature of moral knowledge. Socrates is a perfect illustration of the essential inseparability of dialectic and encouragement in Plato’s works. The very characteristic traits of Socrates - his atopia, a „magic” effect on his interlocutors (and the dialogues’ readers), a superficial rudeness through which the real beauty of his character shows - are subject of analysis. Socratic inquiry, using argumentation ad hominem, combines elenchus and encouragement. The strategy of Socratic discussions (Gorgias is an example) is determined by its protreptical and paidetical goals (which Plato has in consideration). We haven’t got to do in them with reasoning of universal logical value, but with persuasion to choos the most beautiful life. Since Beauty is for Plato a perfect way of appealing to reason, a man like Socrates is alone the most powerful argument for Socratic way of life. And, at the same time, he is the best guide to Plato’s doctrine of Forms. Finally, one can say: if Plato ever succeeded in revealing any immortal Beauty, he did so in the case of the beauty of philosophical life of Socrates. It is the moral ideal culminating in the famous paradox: „virtue is knowledge”, and the paradigmatic harmony of logos and ergon in Socrates’ life enables Plato to reveal the nature of moral knowledge - the justness of uncompromising Socratic intellectualism lies in its paidetical power. PRZEMYSLAW PACZKOWSKI 10 This study concerns Socrates of Plato’s dialogues - Socrates for which there is no serious alternative in the surviving philosophical literature. Plato’s Socrates is a literary character, but his influence - as for a long time has been emphasized1 - can’t be compared to the influence of any true-born philosopher. In his work of genius Plato has turned the already established literary genre - the Sôkratikoi logoi - to the good account, increasing it to the philosophical level, laying the foundations of the whole ancient moral philosophy, directed to the formation of the individual soul. We know however that Plato has represented his master such a man as he’d really loved him, and - as such - it is a credible picture - not in its philosophical substance but thanks to its psychological cohesion. It must have been t h a t man, we feel, whose companions could find „the best, wisest and the most righteous” (Phaedo 118a); who could fascinate cynical and bored aristocrates like Critias or Alcibiades; who could deadly irritate obstinate democrates of Anytos’ kind; and who could be perceived by Athenian demos as corrupting the young’s morals. All this, as Gregory Vlastos has noticed2, speaks in advocacy of Plato’s testimony against Xenophon’s. Of course, as much as one can treat Sôkratikoi logoi in general as testimonies3, and not as „the experiments... directed towards capturing the potentialities rather than the realities of individual lives”4, which they in fact were. Plato has gone farthest this way, creating the figure, which is a paradigmatic embodiment of the philosophical life; creating the hero, whose attitude enabled him to disclose the nature of moral knowledge; creating Socrates, who is alone the best argument and the most efficient encouragement for the Socratic way of life. And exactly such Socrates is too, for Plato, the best mystagôges initiating in the mysteries of the doctrine of Ideas5. Plato has belived that it is required to be intellectually and morally prepared in order to knowing the Ideas6. The intellectual preparation trains the learners for grasping the intelligible features of Being; the moral one makes them responsive to it’s non-sensory beauty. Socrates, defying all previous Greek canons of beauty, and at the same time „magically” attractive for the men to the beauty sensitive7, is the

  • Dobre-Baron, O. the Analysis of the Beer Sector in Romania
    Annals of the University of Petroşani, Economics, 12(4), 2012, 61-76 61 THE ANALYSIS OF THE BEER SECTOR IN ROMANIA OANA DOBRE-BARON * ABSTRACT: This study aims to analyse a sector of the Romanian economy which is currently among the most sustainable. It is about production and marketing of beer, a product with a long and rich history around the world but also in Romania. The analysis covers a period of seven years and takes into account the dynamic evolution of those market-specific indicators such as: production, consumption, imports, exports, workforce involved, the contribution to the state budget, etc. KEY WORDS: sector of activity; beer sector; beer market; production of beer; consumption of beer; beer sales; import and export of beer; workforce. JEL CLASSIFICATION: E2; L66. 1. INTRODUCTION As the human society has evolved, our needs as well as the ways to satisfy them have evolved so that today we encounter only a few goods that we consume like thousands of years ago. Considered over time either a food or a drink, or even remedy against diseases beer held out until today. The first beers dates back to the dawn of civilization when man became from nomadic a farmer and started to conserve grains, and will discover the drink that would become a true and vital "lymph" of a complex and evolved society. Babylonians knew over 20 different ways for making beer. Because beer is consumed in large amounts, the Babylonians developed the first regulation that regulate consumption of alcoholic beverages and operation of the profile venues. In medieval Europe, beer came to be manufactured in monasteries.

  • Report from Romania
    Alcohol in Romania: Beer, Wines & Spirits Best known internationally for its cheap yet good wine, Romania also offers some decent beer and very strong spirits. Wine The story of the Romanian wine industry is a long and complicated one. In short, it was very good, then the communist regime ruined it through under-investment and over-production, and now, back in private hands, it is improving apace. Almost two per cent of Romania’s total agricultural land is given over to vineyards, making Romania one of the world’s top 10 wine producers. As a general rule the best whites are made in the north and in Transylvania, while the country’s best reds are made in the south. There are many exceptions, however. The best known wine making regions in Romania are Dobrogea (reds) and Murfatlar (which makes good reds and decent whites) in the south east, Dealul Mare around Buzau (which makes excellent reds, probably the country’s best, in fact), Tarnava in central Transylvania (whites) and Cotnari (whites) in Moldova. In the west, the deep reds of the Recas vineyards have an increasingly loyal following. While Romania grows (very well) international varieties of grape from Sauvignon Blanc to (some extraordinarily good) Merlot, the country also boasts a number of excellent native grapes. The best local varieties are probably the noble, blackcurrant-tinged Feteasca Neagra (red), Feteasca Alba (white), Feteasca Regala (white) and the aromatic, honey-like Tamaioasa Romaneasca (white). Some Romania’s best wines include the Chardonnay and Feteasca Regala-based brut from the Halewood/Prahova Valley winery, the Tamaioasa Romaneasca on the Domeniile Tohani label, and the semi-sweet red Rai de Murfatlar, a Cabernet Sauvignon from Murfatlar.

REPORT Changes in Alcohol Affordability and Availability Twenty Years of Transitions in Eastern Europe Changes in Alcohol Affordability and Availability and Affordability in Alcohol Changes The last twenty years of transitions have showed mixed results regarding econo- mic and health developments in Eastern Europe – an area which appears to be a unique laboratory for tracing the interplay between social change, alcohol policy, alcohol consumption and related harms. This book contains contributions from countries all over Eastern Europe; • Russia, Belarus and Ukraine which emerged as independent states after dissolu- tion of the Soviet Union but remains outside the European Union, • the three Baltic states which regained independence in the early 1990s and joined EU in 2004 and • Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Romania which also broke with their former political affiliations and economic ties with the Soviet Union in the early 1990s and joined the EU either in 2004 or 2007. However, this is not only a book of alcohol history and country specific develop- ments in Eastern Europe. It is also an attempt to gain a better understanding of why scientific knowledge of the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of different alcohol control measures is not the only decisive factor for paving
