Comparison between Crito and Apology For these two articles that we read in Crito and Apology by Plato‚ we could know Socrates is an enduring person with imagination‚ because he presents us with a mass of contradictions: Most eloquent men‚ yet he never wrote a word; ugliest yet most profoundly attractive; ignorant yet wise; wrongfully convicted‚ yet unwilling to avoid his unjust execution. Behind these conundrums is a contradiction less often explored: Socrates is at once the most Athenian‚ most

In the text Euthyphro‚ Socrates is attempting to help wisdom by creating a true definition of piety. This aids in wisdom because Socrates believes that in order for someone to prosecute another for a crime‚ the prosecutor must know what the definition of the crime is. If the prosecution cannot formally define why they are prosecuting that individual‚ then the prosecution’s claim is unjust. Socrates does this by asking Euthyphro‚ someone who is charging another with impiety‚ what the definition is

In Book VII‚ Socrates exhibits the most delightful and popular similitude in Western logic: the purposeful anecdote of the buckle. This allegory is intended to show the impacts of training on the human soul. Training moves the scholar through the phases on the isolated line‚ and eventually conveys him to the Form of the Good. Socrates portrays a dim scene. A gathering of individuals have lived in a profound buckle since birth‚ never observing the light of day. These individuals are bound with the
