Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này
In "Euthyphro," Plato presents a profound dialogue that explores the nature of piety and the essence of moral virtue through a conversation between Socrates and Euthyphro. Set against the backdrop of Athenian society, this text employs a Socratic method to scrutinize popular theological beliefs and ethical principles, raising essential questions about the relationship between divine command and moral obligation. The dialogue is characterized by its incisive logic and literary elegance, typical of Plato's style, inviting readers to re-evaluate their understanding of what it means to be virtuous and religiously devout. Plato, a student of Socrates and a pivotal figure in Western philosophy, wrote "Euthyphro" during a period marked by political upheaval and philosophical inquiry within Athens. His exposure to Socratic dialogue and the Socratic method undoubtedly influenced his thought process, as he sought to analyze and contextualize ethical concepts through rigorous debate. The text embodies an early exploration of moral philosophy, reflecting Plato's ongoing quest for truth and understanding amidst the complexities of human behavior and belief. "Euthyphro" is an essential read for anyone interested in ethics, philosophy, or theology. Through its rich examination of piety, it encourages readers to engage in self-reflection and critical thought about their own moral convictions. This dialogue remains relevant today, offering insights into the enduring questions of justice, morality, and the nature of the divine.
Giới thiệu tác giả
Plato was born c. 427 B.C. in Athens, Greece, to an aristocratic family very much involved in political government. Pericles, famous ruler of Athens during its golden age, was Plato's stepfather. Plato was well educated and studied under Socrates, with whom he developed a close friendship. When Socrates was publically executed in 399 B.C., Plato finally distanced himself from a career in Athenian politics, instead becoming one of the greatest philosophers of Western civilization. Plato extended Socrates's inquiries to his students, one of the most famous being Aristotle. Plato's The Republic is an enduring work, discussing justice, the importance of education, and the qualities needed for rulers to succeed. Plato felt governors must be philosophers so they may govern wisely and effectively. Plato founded the Academy, an educational institution dedicated to pursuing philosophic truth. The Academy lasted well into the 6th century A.D., and is the model for all western universities. Its formation is along the lines Plato laid out in The Republic. Many of Plato's essays and writings survive to this day. Plato died in 347 B.C. at the age of 80.
