Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - The First Alcibiades is a conversation between Socrates and Alcibiades. Socrates is represented in the character which he attributes to himself in the Apology of a know-nothing who detects the conceit of knowledge in others. The two have met already in the Protagoras and in the Symposium; in the latter dialogue, as in this, the relation between them is that of a lover and his beloved. But the narrative of their loves is told differently in different places; for in the Symposium Alcibiades is depicted as the impassioned but rejected lover; here, as coldly receiving the advances of Socrates, who, for the best of purposes, lies in wait for the aspiring and ambitious youth. Alcibiades, who is described as a very young man, is about to enter on public life, having an inordinate opinion of himself, and an extravagant ambition. Socrates, ’who knows what is in man,’ astonishes him by a revelation of his designs

    Platone scrisse questo testo nel 399 a. C. in seguito alla morte di Socrate. Come altri testi giovanili di Platone, l’Apologia di Socrate risulta tanto affine al pensiero di quest’ultimo, da risultarne come un suo scritto. In realtà Socrate sosteneva la diffusione orale del pensiero e non esistono libri scritti di suo pugno: l’Apologia, se non una cronaca, è certamente il docum...
