Plato/Recollection & Forms in Phaedo
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page essay that analyzes Socrates' argument concerning recollection and the theory of forms in Plato's Phaedo. This discussion largely concerns the topic of the immortality of the soul, however, in broaching this topic, Plato shows Socrates as leading the conversation into a discussion of his theory of forms. In so doing, Plato offers a comprehensive theory that attempts to explain the nature of the universe. However, while certainly intriguing, examination of this dialogue also shows Plato's conception of the universe to be unrealistic. No additional sources cited.

Plato/The Republic
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that examines the arguments put forth in Plato's Republic, books 1 and 2, concerning morality and the nature of justice. Plato has both Thrasymachus and Glaucon argue that what the concept of "Good" has no political relevance. But as Socrates' reply to this argument demonstrates, this premise falls through when examined closely. Because Thrasymachus states his position so emphatically, all that is necessary to refute his position is to demonstrate that "Good" or virtue has a degree of political relevance. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Plato: Education Of Men And Women
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Plato was a thinker well ahead of his time in many ways; his insightful understanding of people and the way in which they interacted with each other and society as a whole was instrumental in his ability to articulate in a most accurate fashion. One of his most astute assertions made in relation to humanity's perceived social and political limitations revolves around the issue of education, arguing how men and women bear no difference in their ability – or natural right – to obtain knowledge. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

What are the real causes; In the Phaedo, Socrates says about his investigations into the natural theories of Anaxagoras: "How high I soared, how low I fell!" (502).
