If it was not for Mr Murkins, I would have never have thought to write this letter. I did not see my actions to be so ill-mannered and atrocious that I would have to write an apology. I feel obliged to be honest with myself and you, therefore, I believe that I have done nothing wrong in my eyes. Although my group and I may have been a little loud, I honestly don’t understand the reason we are forced to write this letter. The whole class was shouting,…

The Apology: Letters From a Terrorist, written by Laura Blumenfeld, details the her pursuit of Omar Khatib, the man who shot her father. Laura, thirteen years after her father was shot by Omar, writes of her encounter with the Khatib family as well as establishing a correspondence with Omar, who at the time was in prison, via an exchange of letters. Laura primarily uses juxtaposition, as well as pathos, to identify, and at times even to argue for or rationalize, the differing perspectives in the…

My actions were wrong I should not have laughed at you, or at the other teachers. Once again there was no humor in what you had to say. The punishment you gave us is ridiculous.

Examining the life of Socrates, Plato wrote a letter, the Apology, which explained Socrates’ journey and his trials. Socrates was a man who craved knowledge, continuously seeking absolute truth and asking questions (Dean, 2016). This hunger of knowledge caused trouble in his town of Athens because he began to wake people up about the corruption of the city. Fearing his ability to influence, the politicians attempted to place several false accusations on him to eliminate the threat to power.…

was a Presocratic philosopher and Socrates was his student. Anaxagoras was an atheist, which led him to be exiled from Athens around 450 B.C. So the fact that Meletus likened Socrates against Anaxagoras was a serious charge in Athens. But in The Apology of Socrates, Socrates defends himself against these charges: “Therefore if I do believe in daimons, as you say, and if, on the one hand, daimons are gods of some sort, then this would be what I say you are riddling and jesting about, when you say…

The Types of Socrates In The Trials of Socrates, we are shown different view points of the Greek philosopher, Socrates. However, none of these views come directly from the philosopher. Socrates had never published anything during his lifetime, therefore all his beliefs are recounted second hand.

These differing accounts have…

Set during the socratic age of philosophy, The Apology by Plato chronicles the trial of Socrates on the charges of corruption of youth and not believing in the Gods. Plato, a young follower and apprentice of Socrates, documents the trial in its’ entirety from beginning to the unfortunate end in which Socrates is sentenced to death. The Apology is the trial of Socrates on a very basic and literal level but upon further inspection, one comes to realize that not only the philosopher is on trial but…

Crito attempts to argue and reason with Socrates. Crito argues that he would lose an irreplaceable friend, reflect badly on Socrates’ friends and refusing his friends’ help, aiding his enemies, abandoning his children, and taking the easy way out. Socrates questioned Crito if one should care about the opinion of the many, or to only listen to the good and wise men. Socrates believed that one should listen only to the wise men, which is the basis to his response to Crito’s arguments that…

Shame and Its Prevalence Throughout “The Apology” There is this philosophical endeavor to investigate emotions and how they are applicable to a person’s identity, shame being one of the emotions (“Emotion: Philosophical Definition”). In the chapter “Apology” from 4 Texts on Socrates by Plato, Plato focuses on how Socrates proves to be Athen’s highly intelligent educator, so that Socrates can overcome the shame that he has for the city. Similarly, shame also occurs in this chapter because it…
