Ask for a paper about Socrates.
Socrates was born in an ordinary citizen's family in Athens, Greece. His father is a sculptor and his mother is a midwife. I was educated by Diotima, who is a smart woman. Claiming to be accompanied by "spiritual traces" means that you have to do something wrong and believe it for life. It was also influenced by orpheus tantra and Pythagoras. Socrates' language is simple, his appearance is ordinary, he is born with a flat nose, thick lips, prominent eyes, clumsy and short body, and his thoughts are sacred, but he has never been literate in his life, and his life stories and achievements are recorded by his disciples. He asked people some questions in the streets of Athens. For example, what is piety? What is democracy? What is virtue? What is courage? What is truth? What is your job? What knowledge and skills do you have? Are you a politician? If so, what do you know about governance? Are you a teacher? How to conquer your ignorance before educating the ignorant? And so on. Socrates said, "My mother is a midwife, and I want to follow in her footsteps. I am a spiritual midwife, helping others to generate their own thoughts. " He inherited his father's footsteps in his early years, engaged in carving stone statues, and later studied philosophy. In Athens, he discussed philosophical issues with many wise men at that time, mainly about ethics, education and politics. He was regarded as the cleverest man at that time. As a citizen, he joined the army three times and showed tenacity and courage in the war. In addition, he served as a jury officer in the Athens citizens' assembly. After the restoration of slave-owner democracy in Athens, Socrates was accused and sentenced to death on charges of flouting traditional religion, introducing new gods, corrupting youth and opposing democracy. He refused the advice of friends and students asking him to beg for mercy and go out to escape, and committed suicide by drinking poisoned wine. [1] In the history of European culture, he has always been regarded as a saint who devoted himself to the pursuit of truth, almost in the same position as Confucius in the history of China. For many years, he was regarded as an anti-democratic philosopher who defended the interests of reactionary slave owners and nobles. Recently, some people have put forward different views on this. When he was young, Socrates studied handicrafts with his father, became familiar with Homer's epic and other famous poets, and became a very learned man through self-study. He made a living by imparting knowledge. In his thirties, he became a social morality teacher who didn't get paid or run a library. Many children from rich families and poor families often gather around him to learn from him and ask him for advice. Socrates often said, "I only know that I know nothing." Socrates' sculptures and works of art (10) spent most of his life outdoors. He likes to talk with people from all walks of life in markets, sports fields, streets and other public places about various issues, such as war, politics, friendship, art, ethics and so on. He fought in the war three times, served as a heavy infantry, and helped injured soldiers in battle more than once. Around the age of 40, he became a household name in Athens. Socrates lived a hard life all his life. No matter whether it is cold or hot, he wears an ordinary thin coat, often without shoes, and he doesn't pay attention to eating. But he didn't seem to notice it, just buried himself in his studies. Socrates' theory is mysterious. He believes that the existence, development and destruction of all things in the world are arranged by God, who is the master of the world. He opposed the study of nature as blasphemy. He advocates that people know how to be human and live a moral life. His philosophy mainly studies and discusses ethical issues.
