    Socrates, in his conviction from the Athenian jury, was both innocent and guilty as charged. In Plato's Five Dialogues, accounts of events ranging from just prior to Socrates' entry into the courthouse up until his mouthful of hemlock, both points are represented. Socrates' in dealing with moral law was not guilty of the crimes he was accused of by Meletus. Socrates was only guilty as charged because his peers had concluded him as such. The laws didn't find Socrates guilty; Socrates was guilty because his jurors enforced the laws. The law couldn't enforce itself. Socrates was accused of corrupting Athens' youth, not believing in the gods of the city and creating his own gods. In the Euthyphro, Socrates defends himself against the blasphemous charges outside the courthouse to a priest…

    1. The similarity between the two lie in their belief to fight an unjust law through persuasion and to do so in a peaceful way. He also claims “In any nonviolent campaign there are four basic steps: collection of the facts to determine whether injustices are alive, negotiation, self-purification and direct action,” and Socrates does participate in the several of these actions to further his point. They both agree that in cases of unjust law, they should fight it (despite that one was willing to go further than another) but still respect the laws in place. King knew that disobeying the law would only bring chaos and reflect badly on the idea of change they wanted and to get the desired results he needed to act in a way that would properly show what he desired.…

    Is Socrates actually guilty of either of the crimes with which he is charged: impiety and corrupting the youth? Are these crimes dangerous for a political community? Is Socrates, in his Apology, fully persuasive that he and his way of life pose no threat to the city? (To answer these questions, you will need to ask yourself what is the foundation for Athenian or, indeed, any political society.)…

    • 1. In the Apology, Socrates recounts how he disobeyed the unjust order of the Thirty Tyrants to arrest a fellow citizen; he also claims that he will never stop philosophizing, regardless of what the legally constituted political authority commands. Yet, in the Crito, Socrates provides numerous arguments for obeying the decision of the legally constituted political authority, even though the decision (to put Socrates to death) was unjust. Critically assess whether Socrates’s view about political obligation in the two texts is consistent.…

    In the Crito, Plato introduces several arguments that Socrates makes on whether or not it would be just for him to escape from prison when the Athenians have not acquitted him. Socrates begins by arguing that one must never do wrong. One of the most compelling arguments that he goes on to make is that doing harm to someone is wrong and therefore one must never engage in retaliatory harm. Under certain circumstances, such as self-defense, retaliatory harm is necessary. Socrates also argues that whenever you violate an agreement, you harm the person you made the agreement with. Therefore, escaping is wrong. In this paper, I shall argue that although the arguments support…

    The Meno is the literary work done by Socrates the main theme in this dialogue/story is what is virtue. The dialogue between Meno and Socrates gives insight and question on what it is. It begins with Meno telling Socrates that he has been under the spell of Socrates and that he did not know what virtue was. This is what started the whole conversation between the boy, Meno, and Socrates. First off Socrates asks Meno what virtue is Meno listed examples about virtue but he did not the exact definition. Instead Socrates uses an analogy with the priestess and priests of who believe that people have an immortal soul. He also then uses the torpedo fish, which is a metaphor for when people are “paralyzed” by for being confused and having inconsistent.…

    In this paper, I will evaluate Socrates’ argument from Phaedo for why philosophers should desire death, perhaps only secondly to wisdom. I will argue that Socrates unfairly characterizes the truthfulness of the senses, and therefore projects a pessimistic view of the philosopher’s virtue during life. This pessimism towards life in conjunction with arguments for an afterlife that liberates reason, seems to suggest that Socrates believes philosophers should desire death: a happy prospect for condemned man, but perhaps a biased one.…

    Socrates was put on trial because he was charged with crimes. The first was “corrupting the youth.” (43) The second was “refusing to acknowledge the gods acknowledged by the city.” (43) The third count was “introducing new divinities.” (43) The reason Socrates was put on trial was because he was going around challenging men about their knowledge and wisdom. He was told by an Oracle that he was the wisest man who lived, but he was skeptical about it, so he went and tested out that theory. He went around questioning men, usually different groups such as politicians or rich men who thought they knew everything about the world. However Socrates always showed them up and they got so angry they decided to take him to trial, for what they call “corrupting…

    Socrates Unjust Analysis

    Socrates an ancient Greek philosopher who arguably set a philosophical president for all modern western theories, though he lived in ___________. Today in the 21st century his trial is still studied and debated. Some belief the trial justified and the Athenians were correct in his prosecution. However, large populations argue that the trial was unjust and Athenians used Socrates as a scapegoat for the troubles that the Athena democracy was facing during that time. Three men brought the charges laid against Socrates. Metetus, a wildly religious man, Anytus, a wealthy business owner and Lycon who was largely unknown and likely only there to fill the Athenian political requirements, there brought fourth two charges, impiety and the corruption of the youth. A…

    Socrates Vs Meno Analysis

    • 376 Words

    Socrates states that the human soul is immortal and it is reborn again, but it’s never destroyed. Socrates also points out that the soul has learned everything that is to know. Therefore, when we “learn” about something, it is merely just a “recollecting” what our soul’s have learned in the past. This idea is essentially the basis of the argument between Socrates and Meno. Socrates tries to prove this to Meno by calling over one of Meno’s servant and confirms that the boy has no knowledge of mathematics. At first, the boy seemed to have no knowledge about Socrates problem. But, through step-by-step questions, the boy was able to provide a correct answer to Socrates problem. Therefore, Socrates states that, since he had no knowledge of geometry in his life, he must have already known it and he was able to…
