Ferraris, Socrate, Platone, Aristotele a la scuola di Atene L’Espresso, Roma 2011 (93 p.) * MAURIZIO FERRARIS racconta Socrate, Platone, Aristotele a la scuola di Atene AUTORI E TESTI Socrate L’ignoranza e la confutazione Platone Il mito della caverna Funzioni e limiti della scruttura * The present survey attempts to encompass all the books bearing in the title the name ‘Socrates’ or the adjective ‘Socratic’, including both primary and secondary sources (e.g., from Aristophanes’ works are featured only the editions specifically dedicated to the Clouds, from Plato’s only those to the Apology, from Xenophon’s only those to the Memorabilia, the Apology, the Symposium, and the Oeconomicus). Other important books, essays and sources dealing with Socrates and/or the Socratics and the Socratic Literature are considered as well. Second and further editions, translations, and general works on ancient philosophy are not included. Excluded are also works in which the name “Socrates” is a mere etiquette (for thought, freedom, democracy etc.), or not indicating the Athenian philosopher. A great deal of the bibliographic information contained in this survey stems from seminal reference tools such as P.K. Bizoukides, EΠIΣTHMONIKAI ΠHΓAI ΠEPI ΣΩKPATOYΣ, Leipzig, Drougoulinou 1921; V. de Magalhães-Vilhena, Le problème de Socrate.

T his edition of the Apology of Socrates and the Crito is based upon Dr. Christian Cron’s eighth edition, Leipzig, 1882. The Notes and Introduction here given have in the main been con­ fined within the limits intelligently drawn by Dr. Cron, whose commentaries upon various dialogues of Plato have done and still do so much in Germany to make the study of our author more profitable as well as pleasanter. No scruple has been felt, how­ ever, in making changes. I trust there are few if any of these which Dr. Cron might not himself make if he were preparing his work for an English-thinking and English-speaking public.

  • Socrates and Democratic Athens: the Story of the Trial in Its Historical and Legal Contexts
    Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics Socrates and democratic Athens: The story of the trial in its historical and legal contexts. Version 1.0 July 2006 Josiah Ober Princeton University Abstract: Socrates was both a loyal citizen (by his own lights) and a critic of the democratic community’s way of doing things. This led to a crisis in 339 B.C. In order to understand Socrates’ and the Athenian community’s actions (as reported by Plato and Xenophon) it is necessary to understand the historical and legal contexts, the democratic state’s commitment to the notion that citizens are resonsible for the effects of their actions, and Socrates’ reasons for preferring to live in Athens rather than in states that might (by his lights) have had substantively better legal systems. Written for the Cambridge Companion to Socrates. © Josiah Ober. [email protected] Socrates and democratic Athens: The story of the trial in its historical and legal contexts. (for Cambridge Companion to Socrates) Josiah Ober, Princeton University Draft of August 2004 In 399 B.C. the Athenian citizen Socrates, son of Sophroniscus of the deme (township) Alopece, was tried by an Athenian court on the charge of impiety (asebeia). He was found guilty by a narrow majority of the empanelled judges and executed in the public prison a few days later. The trial and execution constitute the best documented events in Socrates’ life and a defining moment in the relationship between Greek philosophy and Athenian democracy. Ever since, philosophers and historians have sought to

Roughly, it is the view that there are independent moral standards: some actions are right or wrong in themselves, independent of God's commands. Euthyphro's final suggestion is that holiness is a kind of trading with Euthyphro 1st edition gods, where we give them sacrifices and they grant our prayers. Socrates points out that if both options were true, they together would yield a vicious circle, with the gods loving the pious because it is the Euthyphro 1st edition, and the pious being the pious because the gods love it. Positions Aesthetics Formalism Institutionalism Aesthetic response. At this point the dilemma surfaces. Early life. Euthyphro's first definition of piety is what he is doing now, that is, prosecuting his father for manslaughter 5d. Clearly, the answer is again the latter, something becomes beloved when it is loved. Something is a meter long inasmuch as it is the same length as the standard meter bar, and likewise, something is good inasmuch as it approximates God. Essentialists apply labels to things because they possess certain essential qualities that make them what they are. Is something "beloved" in and of itself like being big or redor does it become beloved when it is loved by someone?

About the Series: For over years Oxford World's Classics has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe. Particular characteristics of matter, such as water's capacity to extinguish fire, was then related to shape and size of the constituent triangles. Though each function individually, the ultimate design is one of interconnectivity. And this is reason why the names of the ancients have been preserved to us and not their actions. Now a large family of distinguished sons sprang from Atlas; d but it was the eldest, who, as king, always passed on the scepter to the eldest of his sons, and thus they preserved the sovereignty for many generations; and the wealth they possessed was so immense that the like had never been seen before in any royal house nor will ever easily be seen again; and they were provided with everything of which provision was needed either in the city or throughout the rest of the country. We must endeavor next to repeat the account of the rest of the country, a what its natural character was, and in what fashion it was ordered.

  • Platonic Defences of Socrates: the Apology, Symposium and Other Works
    Platonic Defences of Socrates: The Apology, Symposium and other works By Agapi Ortaxidou A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies The University of Manitoba In partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Classical Studies University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2017-18 by Agapi Ortaxidou [Type here] Abstract Does Plato defend Socrates in his dialogues? This is my main question throughout this paper which aims to prove that Plato indeed, at least in the examined works, defends his master. I examine in the following order Plato’s Apology, the Symposium, the Meno, the Euthydemus and Charmides. The first two Platonic works comprise chapter one and two respectively, while the three following works compose chapter three. Each chapter includes an introduction, an analysis of my thesis statement and a short conclusion. In the close study of the five works above, my aim is to identify Plato’s means of Socrates’ defence (figures of speech, direct/ indirect defending arguments) against his formal and informal accusations (corruption of the young, impiety, relation to the Sophists). I also identify common traits between these and other Platonic works, while I compare them with works of other ancient scholars too (e.g. Xenophon). Providing the claims of many contemporary scholars, I hope to complete the picture of the Platonic defence. ii [Type here] Acknowledgements I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor Dr. Mark Joyal, professor at the Department of Classics, University of Manitoba, for his constant guidance and encouragement through the learning process of this master thesis.
