Description

pubOne.info present you this new edition. The Protagoras, like several of the Dialogues of Plato, is put into the mouth of Socrates, who describes a conversation which had taken place between himself and the great Sophist at the house of Callias- 'the man who had spent more upon the Sophists than all the rest of the world'- and in which the learned Hippias and the grammarian Prodicus had also shared, as well as Alcibiades and Critias, both of whom said a few words- in the presence of a distinguished company consisting of disciples of Protagoras and of leading Athenians belonging to the Socratic circle.

The dialogue commences with a request on the part of Hippocrates that Socrates would introduce him to the celebrated teacher.

He has come before the dawn had risen- so fervid is his zeal.

Socrates moderates his excitement and advises him to find out 'what Protagoras will make of him, ' before he becomes his pupil.
