Pol. That he is wicked I cannot deny ; for he had no title at all to the throne which he now occupies, he being only the son of a woman who was the slave of Alcetas the brother of Perdiccas ; he himself therefore in strict right was the slave of Alcetas ; and if he had meant to do rightly he would have remained his slave, and then, according to your doctrine, he would have been happy. But now he is unspeakably miserable, for he has been guilty of the greatest crimes : in the first place he (…)

Jowett: wickedness

Jowett: Other
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroOther means other than other, and different, different from the different ? PARMENIDES

Jowett: wicked
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroFriend : From both ; for they suffer loss from loss and from wicked gain. HIPPARCHUS
Socrates : Pray now, do you consider that any useful and good thing is wicked ? HIPPARCHUS
Socrates : And so with drink and every other class of things that exist, when some things in any class come to be good, and others evil, one thing does not differ from another in that respect whereby they are the same ? For instance, [230c] one man, I suppose, is virtuous, and another wicked. HIPPARCHUS

Jowett: reminiscence
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de Castroanamnesis
reminiscence (anamnesis), a source of knowledge, Meno 81 foil., 98 A ; Phil. 34; illustrated by questions to the slave-boy, Meno 82 foil. (cp. Phaedo 73 A); distinguished from memory, Phaedr. 275 A; Phil. 34.
Soc. At the Egyptian city of Naucratis, there was a famous old god, whose name was Theuth ; the bird which is called the Ibis is sacred to him, and he was the inventor of many arts, such as arithmetic and calculation and geometry and astronomy and draughts and dice, but (…) -
Jowett: wholes
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroThen in what way, Socrates, will all things participate in the ideas, if they are unable to participate in them either as parts or wholes ? PARMENIDES
But we said that things which are neither parts nor wholes of one another, nor other than one another, will be the same with one another : — so we said ? PARMENIDES
Str. Then, surely, he who can divide rightly is able to see clearly one form pervading a scattered multitude, and many different forms contained under one higher form ; and (…) -
Jowett: recollection
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroCtesippus will be able to tell you, he said ; for if, as he avers, the sound of my words is always dinning in his ears, he must have a very accurate knowledge and recollection of them. LYSIS
Soc. Because I am sure that if you agree with me in any of the opinions which my soul forms, I have at last found the truth indeed. For I consider that if a man is to make a complete trial of the good or evil of the soul, he ought to have three qualities — knowledge, good-will, outspokenness, which are (…) -
Jowett: weapons
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroSoc. In less than no time you shall hear ; for I cannot say that I did not attend — I paid great attention to them, and I remember and will endeavour to repeat the whole story. Providentially I was sitting alone in the dressing-room of the Lyceum where you saw me, and was about to depart ; when I was getting up I recognized the familiar divine sign : so I sat down again, and in a little while the two brothers Euthydemus and Dionysodorus came in, and several others with them, whom I believe (…)

Jowett: Necessity
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de Castroananke
Necessities, the, of life, Rep. 2. 369, 373 A.
Necessity, the mother of the Fates, Rep. 10. 616, 617, 621 A.
Necessity, not so strong a tie as desire, Crat. 403; not even God can fight against, Laws 5. 741 A; 7. 818 A;—’the necessity which lovers know,’ Rep. 5. 458 E ;—’ the necessity of Diomedes,’ it. 6. 493 D.
— The previous speakers, instead of praising the god Love, or unfolding his nature, appear to have congratulated mankind on the benefits which he confers upon them. (…) -
Jowett: weave
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroAnd do you think that a state would be well ordered by a law which compelled every man to weave and wash his own coat, and make his own shoes, and his own flask and strigil, and other implements, on this principle of every one doing and performing his own, and abstaining from what is not his own ? CHARMIDES
Soc. And with which we weave ? CRATYLUS
Soc. And I ask again, "What do we do when we weave ?" — The answer is, that we separate or disengage the warp from the woof. CRATYLUS
Theod. (…) -
Jowett: anagke
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de Castroananke = Necessity
Soc. Why yes, the end I now dedicate to God, not, however, until I have explained anagke (necessity), which ought to come next, and ekousion (the voluntary). Ekousion is certainly the yielding (eikon) and unresisting — the notion implied is yielding and not opposing, yielding, as I was just now saying, to that motion which is in accordance with our will ; but the necessary and resistant being contrary to our will, implies error and ignorance ; the idea is taken from (…) -
Jowett: weaver
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroMonster ! I said ; you have been carrying me round in a circle, and all this time hiding from me the fact that the life according to knowledge is not that which makes men act rightly and be happy, not even if knowledge include all the sciences, but one science only, that of good and evil. For, let me ask you, Critias, whether, if you take away this, medicine will not equally give health, and shoemaking equally produce shoes, and the art of the weaver clothes ? — whether the art of the pilot (…)

Jowett: weaving
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroSocrates : And by gymnastic over the body, but by weaving [128d] and the rest over what belongs to the body ? ALCIBIADES I
And the healing art, my friend, and building, and weaving, and doing anything whatever which is done by art, — these all clearly come under the head of doing ? CHARMIDES
That is not the true way of pursuing the enquiry, Socrates, he said ; for wisdom is not like the other sciences, any more than they are like one another : but you proceed as if they were alike. For (…) -
Jowett: andreia
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroSoc. Well, then, let me go on in the hope of making you believe in the originality of the rest. What remains after justice ? I do not think that we have as yet discussed courage (andreia), — injustice (adikia), which is obviously nothing more than a hindrance to the penetrating principle (diaiontos), need not be considered. Well, then, the name of andreia seems to imply a battle ; — this battle is in the world of existence, and according to the doctrine of flux is only the counterflux (…)

Jowett: wealth
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroSocrates : Hence the state or soul that is to live aright must hold fast to this knowledge, exactly as a sick man does to a doctor, or as he who would voyage safely does to a pilot. For without this, [147a] the more briskly it is wafted by fortune either to the acquisition of wealth or to bodily strength or aught else of the sort, the greater will be the mistakes in which these things, it would seem, must needs involve it. And he who has acquired the so-called mastery of learning and arts, (…)

courage, a part of virtue, Laches 190, 199; Protag. 349, 350, 353. 359; Laws 1. 631 D foil.; 3. 688 A, 696 B ; 12. 963 ; fourth in the scale of virtue, Laws 1. 630 C, 631 D ; 2. 667 A : = staying at one’s post, Laches 190E; = endurance of the soul, ib. 192 ; =knowledge of that which inspires fear or confidence, ib. 195 (cp.

Jowett: weakness
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroEducation and admonition commence in the first years of childhood, and last to the very end of life. Mother and nurse and father and tutor are vying with one another about the improvement of the child as soon as ever he is able to understand what is being said to him : he cannot say or do anything without their setting forth to him that this is just and that is unjust ; this is honourable, that is dishonourable ; this is holy, that is unholy ; do this and abstain from that. And if he obeys, (…)

Jowett: anxiety
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroDemodocus : Nay, Socrates, there is nothing amiss in what he says, and you will oblige me at the same time ; for I should count it the greatest possible stroke of luck if he should welcome your instruction and you also should consent to instruct him. Nay, indeed, I am quite ashamed to say how keenly I wish it ; but I entreat you both — you, to consent to teach Theages, and you, to seek the teaching of no one else than Socrates ; you will thus relieve me [127c] of a harassing load of anxiety. (…)

Jowett: water
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de CastroWho knows if life be not death and death life ; and that we are very likely dead ; I have heard a philosopher say that at this moment we are actually dead, and that the body (soma) is our tomb (sema), and that the part of the soul which is the seat of the desires is liable to be tossed about by words and blown up and down ; and some ingenious person, probably a Sicilian or an Italian, playing with the word, invented a tale in which he called the soul — because of its believing and (…)

Jowett: sick man
1º de fevereiro, por Cardoso de Castro[139e] Socrates : And do you believe that a sick man must necessarily have the gout, or a fever, or ophthalmia ? Do you not think that, although he may be afflicted in none of these ways, he may be suffering from some other disease ? For surely there are many of them : these are not the only ones. ALCIBIADES II Socrates : Hence the state or soul that is to live aright must hold fast to this knowledge, exactly as a sick man does to a doctor, or as he who would voyage safely does to a pilot. (…)
