1) The arguments regarding the charges against Socrates in the Apology and the arguments in the Crito on whether he should escape from prison.
Summary of the charges against Socrates: USE THIS SUMMARY TO CREATE YOUR POWERPOINT PRESENTATATION:
? SOCRATES DEFENSE—
1. He teaches people to disbelieve the gods—a charge suggested in Aristophanes’ play Clouds, Socrates is portrayed as an
atheist. He corrupts the young; he infuses in them a spirit of criticism—Socrates did attract attention from wealthy young
men in Athens as he cross-examined prominent citizens in the marketplace. It’s quite possible he occasionally accepted
some support from them. In his examination of statesmen, poets, and artisans, he reveals that they do not know what they
claim to know. In any case, by his questioning of authority, he had an effect on the young.
2. ALSO I’M ASKNG THAT EACH PERSON FIND A QUOTE FROM SOCRATES PERTANING TO THIS TOPIC!!
