Book Euthyphro

Download or read book Euthyphro written by Plato and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2018-05-02 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Euthyphro by Plato. Euthyphro by Plato, is a Socratic dialogue whose events occur in the weeks before the trial of Socrates (399 BC), for which Socrates and Euthyphro attempt to establish a definitive meaning for the word piety (virtue). This Euthyphro and Socrates are represented as meeting in the porch of the King Archon. (Compare Theaet.) Both have legal business in hand. Socrates is defendant in a suit for impiety which Meletus has brought against him (it is remarked by the way that he is not a likely man himself to have brought a suit against another); and Euthyphro too is plaintiff in an action for murder, which he has brought against his own father. The latter has originated in the following manner: -A poor dependant of the family had slain one of their domestic slaves in Naxos. The guilty person was bound and thrown into a ditch by the command of Euthyphro's father, who sent to the interpreters of religion at Athens to ask what should be done with him. Before the messenger came back the criminal had died from hunger and exposure

Book Leo Strauss on Plato   s Euthyphro

Download or read book Leo Strauss on Plato s Euthyphro written by Hannes Kerber and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2023-03-22 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leo Strauss famously asserted that the fundamental, defining debate within Western civilization is that between Jerusalem and Athens, piety and philosophy, the Bible and Plato. And yet, surprisingly, Strauss never published any of his thoughts on Plato’s dialogue on piety, the Euthyphro. This volume presents, for the first time, Strauss’s 1948 notebook on the dialogue, written in preparation for a class at the New School for Social Research. Featuring close analysis and line-by-line commentary, the notebook opens a window onto a philosophic mind in action, as Strauss asks questions of the classic text, jots down observations and formulations, and analyzes very specific terms and arguments but also steps back, reviews the overall movement of the dialogue, and reconsiders previous conclusions. Beyond the notebook, the volume also brings together all the known materials that lay out Strauss’s thoughts on the Euthyphro. This includes newly transcribed and edited public lectures, illuminating appendixes, critical essays by volume editors Hannes Kerber and Svetozar Y. Minkov and scholar Wayne Ambler, an account of Strauss’s public lecture, and a new English translation of Plato’s Euthyphro by Seth Benardete, a classicist and one of Strauss’s students. Engaging and inspiring, Leo Strauss on Plato’s “Euthyphro” is a vital resource for scholars and students of political theory, readers interested in the intersection of philosophy and religion, and a must-have for anyone who studies Strauss.

Book Plato s Euthyphro and the Earlier Theory of Forms  RLE  Plato

Download or read book Plato s Euthyphro and the Earlier Theory of Forms RLE Plato written by R E Allen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plato’s Euthyphro is important because it gives an excellent example of Socratic dialogue in operation and of the connection of that dialectic with Plato’s earlier theory of Forms. Professor Allen’s edition of the dialogue provides a translation with interspersed commentary, aimed both at helping the reader who does not have Greek and also elucidating the discussion of the earlier Theory of Forms which follows. The author argues that there is a theory of Forms in the Euthyphro and in other early Platonic dialogues and that this theory is the foundation of Socratic dialogue. However, he maintains that the theory in the early dialogues is a realist theory of universals and this theory is not to be identified with the theory of Forms found in the Phaedo, Republic, and other middle dialogues, since it differs on the issues of ontological status.

Book Truth and Mockery in Platon and in Modernity

Download or read book Truth and Mockery in Platon and in Modernity written by Dale Wilt Evans and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern world is preoccupied with correctness in its views of nature, government, economy and culture but at an unacceptable price. We find nature blind and indifferent and we now see culture as anything legally allowed. This insightful study examines the philosophy leading us here while showing how to change it. If we accept the integral role of mockery in truth we gain a more comprehensive view of ourselves and the world. In a perceptive study of four dialogues of Plato---the ones telling the story of Socrates' defense of philosophy----we find a pattern for our own growth. This book calls for renewed faith in an educated perception and in noble self-development. It speaks to discovering "heart and soul, not in an aesthetic diversion but in the nature of everything around us."

Book excerpt: En se rendant à son procès pour crime d’impiété, Socrate rencontre le devin Euthyphron, qui intente un procès à son propre père : il l’accuse d’avoir provoqué la mort de l’un de ses ouvriers par négligence. C’est parce qu’il se présente à lui comme animé par la vraie piété que Socrate lui demande de définir cette vertu. Le dialogue tourne court quand le devin, perdant pied, se dérobe au jeu des questions de Socrate. Loin toutefois d’aboutir à une impasse, l’Euthyphron sonne le glas de la conception traditionnelle de la piété, qui en fait une sorte de commerce avec les dieux, chacun monnayant habilement ses prières et ses sacrifices. En envisageant la piété indépendamment du service divin, Platon invente l’éthique personnelle, qu’il oppose à la morale conventionnelle. Socrate apparaît alors comme le modèle de la nouvelle piété, débarrassée tout à la fois de l’espoir de la récompense et de la crainte du châtiment.
