    Clouds vs. The Apology In Aristophanes’ Clouds and in Plato’s Apology we see extensive fictional representations of the historical figure‚ Socrates‚ who left us no literary works under his own name. When comparing these two representations‚ readers often assume‚ as a result of the nature of the comedic genre‚ that Aristophanes’ portrayal of Socrates is exaggerated and fallacious. On the other hand‚ Plato’s account is often taken more seriously as a result of the philosophical genre and the respected

    Wisdom - Plato’s “Apology” Many have tried to find definitions to wisdom over the course of time and many have pursued the ideal of becoming wise. This trait is worn as a title of glory and pride by those seen as wise‚ but Socrates’ wisdom brought him more enemies than it did followers or friends. His desire for insight into human nature and all that is around provoked him to ask questions‚ and those who question the “normal” way of things are dangerous and frightening. Should one be accused

    What Is Plato's Apology

    • 833 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The Apology is believed to be the most authentic account that has been preserved of Socrates’ defense of himself as it was presented before the Athenian Council. It is in essential harmony with the references to the trial that occur in Plato’s other dialogs and also with the account given in Xenophon’s Memorabilia. It appears to record‚ in many instances‚ the exact words used by Socrates while making his speech in defense of himself. To be sure‚ the words were not recorded at the time they were spoken

    The apology of Socrates is quite a mystery; his defense is essentiality unbelievable by the average audience. A character so knowledgeable was like no other and can take someone time to truly understand his intelligence and spirt. As Socrates seeks the truth of the frequent lies told against him‚ he was determined to persuade the juries that the accusations presented were untruthful. I find it quite comical how sarcastic and knowledgeable he was to be put in the situation he was in. He was able to

    Sidney's Theme in Apology

    • 1962 Words
    • 8 Pages

    Examine in detail the main ideas in Sidney’s ‘An Apology for Poetry’ and comment on its significance. An Apologie for Poetrie may for purposes of convenience be divided into sixteen sections. 1. The Prologue Before launching a defence of poetry‚ Sidney justified his stand by referring in a half-humorous manner to a treatise on horseman-ship by pietro Pugliano. If the art of horsemanship can deserve such an eloquent euology and vindication‚ surely poetry has better claims for euology and vindication
