Form of the Good

Along with Socrates, Plato continued building philosophy around the conception of the divine attributes of the universe, termed ideal forms by Socrates. These ideas resembled the Pre-Socratic notions of the mind, being, and logos. The search for reality requires intense contemplation and intuition, years of study, and mastery on the nature of the universe, the shape of the world, the soul and its immortality, human thought, psychology, and politics, but they lacked the empirical focus that…

When I reflect on the feedback process, my self-critique and my focus of writing form I distinguished the appropriate feedback from the feedback that was not, by looking at how the feedback would improve my writing and help me to develop a better thought out piece of work. The reason why I did this is to become a better writer, to create a valuable piece of work and to input the actionable feedback that I received. The feedback I implemented improved my work by making it more cohesive and…

unique and defined world view that issued the start of the philosophical terms and concepts that are even carried on in today’s livelihoods. What exactly is a world? A world view is a form of vision, how an individual perceives his/her world from their perspective, how certain actions are seen as right or wrong, good or evil, just and unjust etc. - “A worldview is a framework of set of fundamental beliefs through which we view the world and our calling and future in it (Olthuis, 1989). Now how…

system, the boundaries, which are marked by an occasional very faint line representing what has been called the cement line by Cook et al. [47]. Osteocytes, found in cavities (lacunae) within the matrix, were noticed. Dark precipitate in the form of a thick black line may indicate the presence of calcium phosphate in calcified bone. It was clear from figures 4I and J that dark color was observed in this sample, which indicates that the sample exposed to temperature…

“ - Meno, 81c-d. Thus, follows the conclusion in Meno that education cannot teach knowledge, but rather aids a student to recall what the soul already knows, i.e. the unchangeable Knowledge of Forms. Even though we get an introduction to this theory of recollection in his first writing, you might say it’s a devotion or just a mere fascination… but if you’re familiar with his work you may know you might notice we get a reintroduction to this theory…

Plato covered a lot of philosophical ground during his life. To summarize all of his ideas would require an entire book. My goal with this section is to hit on Plato’s big ideas so that a beginning student can have a good grasp of what Plato was all about, see how his philosophy continues to influence Western culture today, and, hopefully, be inspired to dig deeper into his work. The Tripartite Nature of the Soul Because so much of Plato’s philosophy grows out of his view of the nature of the…

1. In Plato’s The Symposium, Diotima asserts that the Form of Beauty contains four main particular intrinsic features. The first attribute Diotima asserts for Beauty Itself is immortality and changelessness. She claims that Beauty Itself “does not come into being or perish, nor does it grow or waste away” (211a). Beauty Itself has no beginning nor end, nor does it ever change. Immortality and changelessness are attributes not found in beautiful things. For example, human beings and…

Today I chose this experiment because I really wanted to try something new like Crystals. I tought Crystals would be interesting and fun because I would see the process while Crystals Form. My experiment will Impact the world around me because It will show people a new way of how crystals will be formed. This will also help the world around me because It will let the People figure out the real cost of Crystals and how much could they earn growing them. Scientists or Geologists could figure out…

My research paper is about electrolytes, carbohydrates, and proteins. I am going to be explaining what they are, why we need them, and what are good sources of them. And the big question that I am hoping to solve is why are they so helpful. Why are they so important to the human body. The definition of an electrolyte is “any fluid that conducts electricity, such as this new saltwater solution, is known as an electrolyte solution; the salt ions of which it’s composed are then commonly referred…
