"The unexamined life is not worth living." -Socrates
In class we briefly reviewed our notes of the Golden Age and philosophy. Then we watched a few video clips about Plato's Republic. We continued our discussion of The Republic by taking notes along with a powerpoint & reading an excerpt in class. We used this excerpt to classify qualities of a good leader. Then we asked, "What is Justice?" We discovered that the questions can only be answered by more questions.
We will continue our examination of The Republic on Friday. Please bring your Antigone Masks so we can do our comparison activity! Don't forget!
Exitwork: Why would philosophers start questioning traditional beliefsat this particular time in Athenian history?
