about this story

Ancient Greek philosopher Plato was a student of Socrates and a teacher of Aristotle. Much of Plato's life has been constructed by scholars through his writings and the writings of contemporaries and classical historians. As a young man, Plato experienced a life event that set his course and influence his philosophy in life. It was meeting the great Greek philosopher Socrates. Socrates's methods of dialogue and debate impressed Plato so much that he soon he became a close associate and dedicated his life to the question of virtue and the formation of a noble character. Plato was deeply influenced by Socrates' emphasis on ethics and politics, and would later commemorate Socrates as the wise and central speaker in his philosophical writings.
