Alcibiades' Revenge

As a result of the divided troops, the Peloponnesos Peninsula established a permanent garrison in Decalair in the northern part of Attica. It is approximately 15 miles from Athens. This forced the Athenians to abandon the surrounding land and to permanently live in the city. Thousands of slaves abandoned Peloponnesus and industrial and commercial abandonment (Botsford and Robinson 218). This had a major impact on Athens' economic and war capital raising capacity. Because the enemy is behind, Athens can not gather its power to conquer Syracuse in Syracuse.

Essentially, Socrates is already casting a very simple question on Alcibiades. He wonders which Alcibiades are eligible to become a leader in Athens, what advice is given to Athens, and where do you learn it? Essentially, Socrates wants Alcibiad to communicate his understanding of justice. It is a difficult question for anyone, but Alcibiades does not even know that justice should be at the center of his leadership. He is trying to grasp the words that explain how to act when the city moves well. Let's wiretapping

In Alcibiades, Socrates and the young Alcibiades tried to identify the essence of justice, because Alcibiades wanted to dominate the city. Justice has not been clearly clarified, but in conversation we have learned important things about how we take care of our soul and how to nurture our soul. An important Socartes is talking about friendship. Socrates said that in order to take care of himself, it is necessary to "know yourself", at first glance it seems like an easy task. But as we all experience, we tend to concentrate too much on what we want in our ideas, and in many cases we get a sufficiently broad perspective. In order to solve this problem, Socrates explained that we need good friends who can see ourselves. The image used by Socrates is to examine the eyes of others and see their images there (133a)
