The Trial and Death of Socrates: The Crito
Manage episode 313220289 series 3262605
Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence - Aristotle
In this episode we continue our discussion the trial and death of Socrates. We pick up from the Apology of Socrates and discuss the Crito. Crito was a wealthy friend of Socrates who sought to help him escape from prison. This dialogue is a well-written exchange between the two over the moral implications of escaping and the role of the individual within the state. There is a brief discussion on whether or not the Crito is compatible with the Apology of Socrates and why more checks and balances were not argued for in the Republic.
Always feel free to let us know what you think, or any episode requests. We would love to hear from you! Thank you for listening and we'll see you next time as we search for truth on the road that never ends!
