Socrates trial and execution was completely justified, says new study

Over the centuries, historians explained the 399 BC trial as a satire and Socrates was forced to face accusations of his ignorant fellowman.

He innocent of "squatting" and "defiling young people", was sentenced to death, and then demanded execution of his executions by eating fatal medicine of fatal plant Hemloc

But in a new study announced today, Professor Paul Catridge concluded that this trial is legitimately fair and that Socrates is guilty.

Professor Katrich said: "Everyone knows that Greeks invented democracy, but since we do not know democracy, we misunderstand history.

"The accusations that Socrates faces seems absurd to us, but in ancient Athens they felt they really served for the benefit of the public."

Historians traditionally have argued that the public criticism of Socrates against famous Athenian politicians made him a number of enemies using trials to get rid of him.

Socrates became an antique of a series of disasters that hit Athens, including declared plague and major military defeat

However, Professor Katrich pointed out that many citizens will view these events as signs that their gods are offended by unpleasant elements.

He believes that Socrates, who has questioned the legitimacy and authority of many gods, is consistent with the latter's explanation.

Professor Catholic says it is not only for godly accusations, not just for the public, as the gods are obviously angry and more likely that more disasters will come.

The professor's research also concluded that Socrates basically invoked his own death. According to the system of Athens, in this trial, the defendant can present his own punishment.

Socrates initially joked that he deserved a reward, and finally imposed a small fine, but his jury did not see an interesting side and passed the death sentence .

"By excluding him, society, Athenian eyes, already cleaned and reconfirmed," Katrich concluded.

The innocent purpose of Socrates is to investigate the death of Socrates and to support the jury's irrational assertion in the Socrates trial in the sentencing sentence. One of the main arguments against Socrates in his trial was "rude". This statement concretely states that Socrates introduced new gods by ignoring the gods of the accepted cities. "Ignore the spirit of the masses" may refer to Socrates' individualism

The main sources of Socrates 'trial and enforcement are the apology of Plato' s Socrates and the apology of Xenophon in Athens to his student Socrates, and for modern interpretation journalist IF Stone 's Socrates' Was included. The trial (1988) and classical scholar Socrates died Robin Waterfield: Elimination of myths (2009). Before philosopher Socrates judged moral corruption and devotion, the citizens of Athens regarded him as an intellectual and moral person in society. In the manga "The Clouds" (423 BC), Aristophanes mentioned that Socrates is a sophisticated philosopher who taught young people how to make a debate about how to beat and hit his father It was. Socrates denied the relationship with Sophist, but the playwright showed that Athens combined the philosophical teachings of Socrates with Sophism.

The main existing sources of information on Socrates' trial and execution history are as follows.
