Readings for Wednesday -- Class Comments -- One Minute Paper 1

Read the Crito through 50a.

Class will slow down and anchor itself to text now.  We will be working through sections of the Crito together Wednesday and Friday.  (For Friday, read through the end of the Crito, by the way.)

One Minute Paper 1

Provide a summary of the best of the arguments the Law of Athens give to Socrates.  Why do you think it best?  Should Socrates accept the argument's conclusion?  Yes or No?  If you answer Yes, defend the argument against what you take to be the strongest objection to it.  If you answer No, give your argument and explain why you think it would persuade Socrates to escape.

Answer to be written in class on Monday, September 9.
