Socrates During the golden age of freedom and education in Athens, many teachers traveled around Greece educating the young. One of the most famous of these teachers was a man named Socrates.  Socrates also taught his students to think for themselves. He created a teaching method known today as the Socratic Method, which helped students think clearly, and question their currently accepted way of thinking. Socrates was eventually accused of corrupting the young. After being convicted by a jury he was sentenced to death. 

School of Athens Plato and Aristotle are central figures Pythagoras is in lower left working on a theorem

Socratic Method Socrates taught people by asking questions to stimulate thinking.

Plato A young student of Socrates. Plato opened a school called The Academy to teach people men to become better statesmen.  Plato authored a book which he titled ‘The Republic’, which outlined what he believed was the perfect government. Plato felt that a democracy was not the most effective form of government, because the lower classes of people could not be trusted. He felt that the higher classes which were more educated aught to be in charge of the government.

Aristotle After studying with Plato for nearly 20 years, Aristotle set out on his own as a teacher. He opened a school in Athens, where he taught on everything from science, to politics, to critical thinking.  Aristotle wrote over 200 books during his life. These books would remain long after his death, and would effect western thinking for centuries to come. 

S.P.A.A. Socrates taught Plato Plato taught Aristotle Aristotle taught Alexander the Great
