4/18 Plato Reading

DUE WED 4/18 Plato Reading and Blog
Read all of section c. pp. 85-93 (start where the section begins on the bottom)
Answer one of the following questions or develop your own. Post the response on your blog. Don’t forget to include the question in bold on your blog.

2. What is your reaction to the ending of the section? What is good and/or bad about the type of society outlined by Socrates?


I think by illimatinating art as a form or expression, Socrates is basically asking for an outcry from the people. Citizens will want to be able to do what they want more if there are rules saying you cant do it. The overall outcome of saying that Art isnt a true way to make a difference will back fire.
