Socrates and the jury. <\/strong><\/p>\n Breve intervento di Francesco Fronterotta professore di Storia della filosofia antica presso l\u2019Universit\u00e0 di Roma \u201cLa Sapienza\u201d. Si occupa particolarmente del pensiero dei presocratici, di Platone, di cui ha tradotto e curato numerosi dialoghi, e della tradizione platonica antica e moderna.<\/p>\n A seguire<\/em><\/p>\n The Apology of Socrates<\/strong> The event to which the Apology refers to is the self-defense that Socrates pronounced in front of the Athenian judges in 399 B.C. \u2013 Plato was an eyewitness. Socrates, victim of a political conspiracy, is accused of impiety and of corrupting the young. For these reasons he is condemned to death, but at the end of the trial, he leaves to his own accusers a final fundamental message: \u201cFor if you think that by killing men you can avoid the accuser censuring your lives, you are mistaken; no evil can happen to a good man, either in life or after death.\u201d This is Plato\u2019s political dialogue par excellence, that shows a man and his community in the dramatic confrontation on the meaning of life \u2013 both personal and political.<\/p>\n<\/div> Iscriviti alla Newsletter<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div> <\/p>
