Alcibiades I

by Benjamin Jowett (Translator), Plato

Overview

The Greek philosopher Plato was born in Athens in 428 B.C. He created dramatic dialogues, probably intended for oral performance, but seldom presented in that format. The first Alcibiades is a conversation between Socrates and Alcibiades. Alcibiades, a glamorous young man, is about to enter public life, with great ambitions and a very high opinion of himself. Socrates is portrayed as a know-nothing who detects the conceit of knowledge in others.
