What is Sophistry: A Study of Plato’s Sophist
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- Plato's dialogue, The Sophist, examines what exactly a sophist is and what sophistry involves. The dialogue characters recognize that it's very hard to fully encapsulate a sophist within just one definition. Ultimately they end up with around 7 different definitions for a sophist that speak to different elements. One definition even goes so far as to define the sophist as a hunter of humans using persuasion in order to receive money. In the end, even though we often use the words "sophist" and "sophistry" somewhat loose in today's culture, Plato's definitions might give us a more concrete way of identifying sophistry when we encounter it.

Jeez so many sophists. Sophistry overload. Please don’t start a cult of sophistry. There is too much competition already!
I know you won’t, you always keep it real 💯
Plato had a lot more patience than I do.
Got you homes, nice video 👌
So, I suppose an example of modern day sophists are life coaches? Or did this one go over my head?
