- Article: "Responding to Socrates Pedagogical Provocation" by Anne-Marie Bowery ABSTRACT: In this paper I examine the text of the Symposium to illustrate two non-philosophical responses to Socrates pedagogical provocation. While Apollodorus and Aristodemus, two Socratic disciples, demonstrate their erotic commitment to Socrates, they do not practice philosophy. In the first section I analyze Aristodemus and Apollodorus emotional attachment to Socrates. In the second section, I examine the nuances of the narrative frame of the Symposium. In the third section, I interpret Platos rhetorical use of anonymity as a strategy designed to mitigate against the dangers of discipleship.
- Article: "Socrates' Last Error" by Miroslav Ivanovic ABSTRACT: In the dialogue, Crito, Socrates justified his decision to accept his death penalty. His decision was praised as principled and just. However, such a view was one of the greatest myths in the history of philosophy. Contrary to the accepted ideas, I wish to show that Socrates argument was erroneous, the crucial error being his failure to distinguish between substantial and procedural justice. In fact, the whole of the Crito refers to some deeper problems of the philosophy of law and morality.
