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

The man has his eyes closed and seems relaxed by the rushing water and his guitar to notice the surroundings. On the

In 399 BCE‚ Socrates was put on trial and convicted to death for “impiety and corrupting the youth of the city” (Apology‚ p. 202). He asked many questions of people‚ making them look unintelligent and the upper-class youth followed suit.

Socrates: Creating Elaborate Arguments Socrates in his defense of the accusations brought onto him‚ argues on several different topics that disprove any accusations that Meletus brought to the trial. His approach at defending himself through arguments was a bold move‚ and as we know from reading the text‚ the jury still finds him guilty regardless of this strategy that backfired on him.
