Protagoras

The troublesome passage of Protagoras contradicted the meaning of the basic rule and ended with the restoration of the debate, so the first and most important was the subdivision of the discussion between Socrates and Protagoras. Although the format is only a gap between the main lines of discussion, this sentence is actually a paradigm of politics that solves the problem "people with different abilities and preferences form a community" Including. During the dialogue, this fable extends to education as well.

Plato (427-347 BC): Proto is the protagonist of the Plato dialogue. The doctrines of Pratolas and Protagoras were widely discussed in Plato's Theaetetus. But Plato's dialogue is a mixture of historical stories and art permissions, as was the manga of the day. In addition, by the time Plato was very young, Protagoras is dead and Plato may rely on incomplete reliable preliminary evidence to understand Protagora. Diogenes Laertius (3rd century BC): Diogenes' life of philosophers may be the most comprehensive source of many works and biographies of early Greek philosophers. Unfortunately, his work was written over 600 years after the death of Protagoras, it is a noncritical editorial of materials from various sources, some are reliable, others are not There is also.

The first major relativist philosopher was Protagoras (490 BC - 420 BC). The "truth" he wrote contains his most famous words; "human beings are a measure of everything." Some things are measured to value it, and Protagoras is all Consider and even have the value of - everything depends on human observers. In other words, all the values ​​are related to the observer. Plato presented numerous arguments against Protagora's extreme relativism. The competition between these views continues to this day. As an alternative to relativism, Plato developed the concept of two levels of reality. We humans have limited time and space, our cognition and intelligence are influenced by mistakes, and our view limits what we can understand and understand. Nevertheless, we can form the concept of infinite, perfect, eternal, true universe even though it does not fulfill our understanding. In the Republic, Plato introduced two powerful images to explain his view on dual reality.

As many contemporary thinkers have said, Plato attributes relativism to Protagora and uses his predecessor's teachings as a foil to his commitment to objectivity and reality and value transcendence. Plato believes that Protagoras is the earliest form of John Wild that is classified as phenomenology. This is an assertion that for someone, or what appears is the truth or the truth for that person. But as Plato's Theaetetus states, Protagora's view allows certain ideas to be caused by physical or mental discomfort. He emphasized that all views are equally correct, and perhaps equally respected, but they are certainly not equally important. One aspect may be useful and beneficial to the owning owner, but another perspective may be harmful. Therefore, Protagoras believes that there is a trick to teach the students how to tell them, that is, to teach "virtue".
