Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En 399 avant notre ère, à Athènes, Socrate comparaît devant le Tribunal de la cité. Accusé de ne pas reconnaître l’existence des dieux traditionnels, de créer de nouvelles divinités et de corrompre la jeunesse, il est condamné à mort. De son procès, il nous reste peu de témoignages, mais celui que Platon nous livre dans l’Apologie de Socrate élève au rang de mythe fondateur de la philosophie un fait qui aurait pu demeurer banal au regard de l’histoire. Face à ses juges, Socrate mène sa défense en invoquant la pratique de la philosophie, qui seule fait que la vie vaut d’être vécue. Plus tard, dans la prison où il attend son exécution, Socrate oppose à son ami Criton, qui lui propose de fuir, le verdict du philosophe : mieux vaut affronter la mort que contrevenir aux lois de la cité et ainsi commettre l’injustice. Si l’on en croit Platon, il fallait que Socrate meure pour que vive la philosophie.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This valuable work of reference provides a comprehensive bibliography on all scholarly work that was published on Plato and Socrates during the years 1958-73. It thus forms an important addition to Harold Cherniss’s bibliography, which covered the years 1950-7. The author has sought to include all materials primarily concerned with Socrates and Plato, together with other works which make a contribution to our understanding of the two philosophers. The bibliography is arranged by topic and there are cross-references at the end of each section. The works in each category are arranged chronologically and then alphabetically (by author) within each year. An effort has been made to distinguish when a book has had more than one edition and when an article has been reprinted. Additionally the author has listed reviews of books and dissertations as these have come to his attention.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Athènes, 399 avant notre ère. Socrate, citoyen sans fortune ni pouvoir politique, comparaît devant le Tribunal de la cité. Quels sont les faits reprochés ? On l’accuse de ne pas reconnaître l’existence des dieux traditionnels, d’introduire de nouvelles divinités et de corrompre la jeunesse. Face à ses juges, Socrate assure seul sa défense et met en garde les Athéniens : le philosophe est un bienfait pour la cité et celle-ci se condamne elle-même en mettant à mort son héros. Mais le verdict est sans appel : la condamnation à mort. Élevée au rang de mythe fondateur de la philosophie, l’Apologie de Socrate expose les exigences d’une vie vertueuse telle que la défend Socrate : amour du savoir, souci du vrai, recherche de l’acte et du mot justes.

Download or read book Socrates on Trial written by Thomas C. Brickhouse and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1990-09-04 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Brickhouse and Nicholas Smith offer a comprehensive historical and philosophical interpretation of, and commentary on, one of Plato's most widely read works, the Apology of Socrates. Virtually every modern interpretation characterizes some part of what Socrates says in the Apology as purposefully irrelevant or even antithetical to convincing the jury to acquit him at his trial. This book, by contrast, argues persuasively that Socrates offers a sincere and well-reasoned defense against the charges he faces. First, the authors establish a consensus of ancient reports about Socrates' moral and religious principles and show that these prohibit him from needlessly risking the condemnation of the jury. Second, they consider each specific claim made by Socrates in the Apology and show how each can be construed as an honest effort to inform the jurors of the truth and to convince them of his blamelessness. The arguments of this book are informed by a critical review of the scholarly literature and careful attention to the philosophy expressed in Plato's other early dialogues.

Download or read book Cross Examining Socrates written by John Beversluis and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2000-01-06 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a rereading of Plato's early dialogues from the point of view of the characters with whom Socrates engages in debate. Socrates' interlocutors are generally acknowledged to play important dialectical and dramatic roles, but no previous book has focused mainly on them. Existing studies are thoroughly dismissive of the interlocutors and reduce them to the status of mere mouthpieces for views which are hopelessly confused or demonstrably false. This book takes interlocutors seriously and treats them as genuine intellectual opponents whose views are often more defensible than commentators have standardly thought. The author's purpose is not to summarise their positions or the arguments of the dialogues in which they appear, much less to produce a series of biographical sketches, but to investigate the phenomenology of philosophical disputation as it manifests itself in the early dialogues.

Download or read book The Platonic Alcibiades I written by François Renaud and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-09-09 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it was influential for several hundred years after it first appeared, doubts about the authenticity of the Platonic Alcibiades I have unnecessarily impeded its interpretation ever since. It positions itself firmly within the Platonic and Socratic traditions, and should therefore be approached in the same way as most other Platonic dialogues. It paints a vivid portrait of a Socrates in his late thirties tackling the unrealistic ambitions of the youthful Alcibiades, urging him to come to know himself and to care for himself. François Renaud and Harold Tarrant re-examine the drama and philosophy of Alcibiades I with an eye on those interpreters who cherished it most. Modern scholars regularly play down one or more of the religious, erotic, philosophic or dramatic aspects of the dialogue, so ancient Platonist interpreters are given special consideration. This rich study will interest a wide range of readers in ancient philosophy.

Book excerpt: Πολιτεία, published on 375 BC, by Plato (428/427 or 424/423 BC - 348/347 BC) Translation by Benjamin Jowett (1817 - 1893), Published by The Colonial Press in 1901 Special Introduction by William Cranston Lawton (1853 - 1941) Introduction by Nicolae Sfetcu Cover: Plato in his academy (cropped), 1879 - Unknown xylographer, After Carl Wahlbom (1810–1858) The Republic of Plato is considered an integral part of the utopian literary genre. The book is divided into 10 books: the first deals with the subject of justice; in the next two books Plato expounds his theory of the "ideal state"; the fourth and fifth books deal with the relationship between things and ideas, between the sensitive and supersensitive world (hyperuranion); books six and seven describe the theory of knowledge; the eighth and ninth books talk about the state and the family; and the last book examines the idea of the immortality of the soul with the Myth of Er. The central theme of the book is justice, argued with the help of several Platonic theories, including the allegorical myth of the cave, the doctrine of ideas, dialectics, the theory of the soul and the project of an ideal city. A book of moral philosophy, in which the real questions are how to live best, and what is the best order or organization of human society. The Republic is considered by many academics to be the greatest philosophical text ever written, being the most studied book in top universities.
