Harokopos, Aristeidis 1851 Χαροκόπος, Αριστείδης Ευθύδημος Euthydemus Produced by Sophia Canoni. Book provided by Iason Konstantinides "Ευθύδημος" by Plato is a philosophical dialogue written in ancient times, likely during the 4th century BC. The work primarily engages in a discourse contrasting the teachings of the sophists, specifically the characters Euphridides and Dionysodorus, with the Socratic method, personified through Socrates. This dialogue satirizes sophistic rhetoric and raises questions about the nature of virtue and knowledge. At the start of the dialogue, we see Socrates conversing with Crito, who inquires about Socrates' recent discussion in the Lyceum. Socrates introduces the sophists Euphridides and Dionysodorus, describing them as skilled dialecticians who have recently gained a reputation for teaching the art of argumentation. He reveals that these sophists claim to be able to teach virtue and knowledge effectively, prompting a discussion about their methods of teaching and the nature of the wisdom they profess to impart. This opening portion sets the stage for a humorous and critical examination of sophistry and philosophical inquiry, showcasing Plato’s characteristic blend of wit and philosophical depth.
