27th January 2013 Dear XY‚ I have recently read your letter about zoos which are out-of-date and where the animal keepers treat the animals cruel. I think the article talked about only the zoos’ bad side which is very sad but I’m sure that we can find a lot of zoos which shows us the opposite. In my opinion the zoos can be educational because they keep exotic animals which most of us couldn’t see in their natural environment in Asia or Africa. To visit a good zoo is our only opportunity

Sir/Madam‚ In response to the review of the film The Hunt (Jagten) as published on guardian.co.uk on Sunday 20 May 2012‚ I would like to give my opinion. Danish film director Thomas Vinterberg moots a very topical subject with his fantastic new drama about the snowball effect of a false accusation. Because of a casual lip-deep utterance of a five-year-old girl‚ a kindergarten teacher named Lucas is accused of pedophilia. The unnerving film shows perfect how the life of this man completely collapses.

Plato’s The Apology is an account of the speech Socrates makes at the trial in which he is charged with not recognizing the gods recognized by the state‚ inventing new deities‚ and corrupting the youth of Athens.

Thus‚ Plato use of Palamedes in the Apology clarifies‚ then‚ Plato’s desire to seek for knowledge
