What year did Plato meet Socrates?

507 B.C.E., when Plato was 21 years of age. Socrates was convicted and executed 8 years later. There is actually debate about the date, and how old Plato was. In any case, it would have been 407 BCE, since Socrates was executed in 399.

When he is found guilty by the jury, Meletus supports sentencing Socrates to death.

How does socrates plato and Aristotle's philosophies relate to logic and argument in philosophy?

as for Love, as you might know the platonic love indeed. as for existence: what is real and what really exist according to Plato are "the forms". Aristotle on the other hand thinks that the universe that we percieve is real. Plato, thinks that the universe that we percieve is merely a copy of the FORMs. Knowledge: Socrates, or Plato, since Plato is considered the mouth piece for Socrates, thinks that we are born with some knowledge, which we gained from our previous lives. They believe in rebirth until perfection and then united with G*d.


Why is Plato considered the greatest student of Socrates?

Plato was the most influential of Socrates' students and by far one of the most enthusiastic. He is attributed with recording the majority of Socrates' works, since Socrates had never written down any of his philosophical ventures. In fact, contemporary scholars still find it difficult to differentiate the writings of Socrates and Plato (the Socratic problem).


Could Socrates write?

Since we have books written by him, it seems safe to assume that he could. --Wrong- Socrates wrote nothing. It is very likely he was a fictional character created by Plato for the Dialogs-- consider his reputation for slovenliness and his wretched wife, then imagine such being the wisest man in Athens --

The Republic was the most important and the most famous book written by Plato. It is written in the dialogue form.
