Project Summary: A few questions on the apology by plato Some of Socrates’ accusers knew that the charges against Socrates were false. Why they bring false accusations against him? Should people have been angry with Socrates for uncovering their ignorance? Was Socrates for overthrowing everything traditional? (Give evidence in support of your answer.) Socrates accepted his death sentence. However, long before that there were two or three other things that he accepted losing in order to better pursue his mission. What are they? Why does Socrates refuse the option of leaving Athens and leading a quiet life? Give the order according to which Socrates thought one ought to value the following (starting from the most to the least): friends, material goods, family, reputation, conscience, fellow citizens. Provide evidence that he does indeed put first the thing you list, first and last the thing you list, last. Do all philosophers have (a) the same moral views as Socrates?
