PHIL 875 Plato's Early Dialogues

A close analysis of some of the early and transitional dialogues, such as Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, Laches, Meno, and Protagoras. We shall examine the theme of Socratic ignorance and irony, the claim that virtue is knowledge and the unity of virtue, as well as why Socrates uses patently fallacious arguments and is so fond of craft analogies.
