Protagoras

Excerpt from Protagoras by Plato Early in the morning Socrates and I arrive at the home of Callias where we find Protagoras Hippies and Predieus lecturing energetically in the areas at each end of the court and in one of the adjacent rooms respectively. Protagoras is moving Hippies is responding to questions from a high seat and Predicas students are gathered around his bed. We only omit Gorgias among the sophistic leaders probably because Plate thought his work was so noteworthy and unique that he opted to consider it as a stand-alone piece of work rather than assigning it to him in this context. Along with Socrates and Callies a group has assembled around the sepbists. About the Author Numerous tens of thousands of rare and vintage books are published by Forgotten Books.
