Plato's Biography of Socrates (Classic Reprint) by Alfred Edward Taylor Pdf

Alfred Edward Taylor was a British idealist philosopher and a prolific author, most widely known for his work on the philosophy of idealism and his scholarship of the ancient philosopher Plato. Taylor's book Plato's Biography of Socrates is one of several that he wrote over the course of his life detailing the phenomenal life of ancient philosopher, teacher, and mathematician Plato. In this book, Taylor explores the complex relationship between the famous Plato and his equally famous teacher Socrates and covers the dialogues between them at length. At his death, Plato left behind thirty-six dialogues and thirteen letters ascribed to Socrates which have since been used to teach a wide range of subjects including philosophy, ethics, rhetoric, logic, mathematics and religion. Known by many contemporary readers only as the famous student of Socrates, Taylor wanted to emphasize Plato's contributions to society as an ancient Greek philosopher, a mathematician and writer of philosophical dialogues - as well as the primary instructor of another famous philosopher, Aristotle, and founder of the Academy in Athens which was the first institution of higher learning in the Western world. Plato's work with Socrates and later his work with Aristotle helped lay the foundations of the study of science and Western philosophy. Taylor's work as a scholar of Plato makes him an authoritative source on the life and times of the ancient philosopher, and he weaves together an intriguing book about both Plato and his mentor. Plato's Biography of Socrates is a wonderful book for those interested in exploring Plato, Socrates, and the overwhelming connection between these two great men. Their legacy alone makes this an interesting read, but this book is also great for any reader who is interested in philosophy and ancient philosophers.

A Life of Socrates (Classic Reprint) by Gustav Wiggers Pdf

Plato by A. E. Taylor Pdf

Excerpt from Plato The following sketch makes no claim to be considered as a complete account of the philosophy of Plato. Many topics of importance have been omitted altogether, and others only treated with the utmost attainable brevity. I have also thought it necessary to avoid, as far as possible, all controversial discussion, and have therefore in many cases followed my own judgment on disputable points without attempting to support it by the detailed reasoning which would be indispensable in a work of larger scope. My object has been to sit as loose as possible to all the traditional expositions of Platonism, and to give in broad outline the personal impression of the philosopher's thought which I have derived from repeated study of the Platonic text. Those who are the most competent to condemn the numerous defects of my little book will, I hope, be also most indulgent in their verdict on an attempt to compress into so small a compass an account of the most original and influential of all philosophies.

A Day in Athens with Socrates by Plato Plato Pdf

Excerpt from A Day in Athens With Socrates: Translations From the Protagoras and the Republic of Plato Ethical problems, to solve which was the avowed object of this new school bf philosophy, but too frequently were abandoned for a training intended to ensure worldly success and fame; high ideals, sometimes even moral standards, were practically ignored; ability in discussion, facility of expression, came to be regarded not merely as helps to reach truth, but as the sole end of education, the greatest good of man.2 It is doubtless true that to class all the immediate predecessors of Socrates indiscriminately in one school is as unfair as to make their supposed method a mere synonyme for specious argument Also in their favour it should be remembered that an inestimable service was ren dered by these men in preparing the ground for Socrates himself, and through him for all subsequent philosophers. Had the doctrine that Man is the measure of all things not been proclaimed by Protagoras, the conclusion would less soon have been reached, that not only IS philosophy made for man, but that man also is made for philosophy; and that hence his bounden duty, nay, his privilege it is, to apply to each act of his life the test whereby the true may be separated from the false, the real from the unreal.
