#15: Plato’s Republic

#15: Plato’s Republic (right side) Facts about Socrates Was a veteran; a hoplite that apparently was fearless in battle! Created the Socratic Method—or a questioning technique that is still used today. His way of thinking led him to believe that attaining true wisdom is the only way to create a government that is neither a democratic government nor a tyrannical government. He always believed that individuals with greater understanding and knowledge can run a government more efficiently. Apparently he never bathed! Based on human reason, he always said that only when a person knows himself or herself, he or she can attain ultimate wisdom. Socrates HATED democracies….. Why let uneducated people vote? Today, we look at a democracy is an ambiguous good but it is only ever effective as the educational system within it. Boy, are WE in trouble..!

Time to team up. Yes…. team up with a buddy Time to team up. Yes….team up with a buddy. You’re gonna do a reading aloud at a volume 2. I’ll give you a few minutes (thx, Sumeria) before we’ll go to the next phase. Do not take the reading with you.

#15: Plato’s Republic Concept Squares (right side) Discuss: Looking at Plato’s definition of a philosopher, why would a philosopher make a good leader? Describe. According to Socrates/Plato, what is a philosopher (ie. what features to philosophers possess)? Explain: How is Socrates/Plato’s idea to fix the governments of the world received by Glaukon? Why do you think this is? Summarize: According to Socrates/Plato, what change must happen for the governments of the world to become more fair and just?

Left side Exit Ticket. Write the question in your notebook & on the exit ticket papyrus (thx, Egypt) & answer it. So, yes, you’re going to write this twice; 1 in notebook, 1 on exit papyrus. Analyze: In what ways do you think the ideas expressed in Plato’s Republic influenced Western political thought?
