Socrates created and developed a teaching method based on questions and answers. One of the most important things he did was showing people that there were two sides to most issues. He also encouraged people to asks questions on things rather than just accept things as they are told to you. He discussed with people right and wrong, sanity and insanity, courage and cowardice and the best way to govern.
Socrates did not leave behind any written works. All that we know of him (his life, his philosophy) is based on the writings of his students and contemporaries: most notably, Plato's dialogues. However, scholars haven't always agreed that these dialogues reveal an accurate portrayal of Socrates; hence, the "Socratic Problem" emerges.
Socrates' student, Plato, wrote many books to spread his teachings.
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 --
Socrates doesn't really have aesthetic theories, but his student Plato does have aesthetic theories and part of those aesthetic theories could be what Socrates had to say about aesthetics. It is unkown what part of those theories are from Socrates and what parts are from Plato himself, this is mainly because Socrates didn't really write anything down. Plato did write things down and he tells how Socrates thought about different theories, some of the ideas Plato introduces as it is from Socrates whilst a part of those are from himself. So if you want to know about Socrates his aesthetic theories you are going to have to look at Plato his aesthic theories
This is from the Wikipedia article linked below: * Socrates' death is described at the end of Plato's Phaedo. Socrates turned down the pleas of Crito to attempt an escape from prison. After drinking the poison, he was instructed to walk around until his limbs felt heavy. After he lay down, the man who administered the poison pinched his foot. Socrates could no longer feel his legs. The numbness slowly crept up his body until it reached his heart. Shortly before his death, Socrates speaks his last words to Crito: "Crito, we owe a cock to Asclepius. Please, don't forget to pay the debt." Asclepius was the Greek god for curing illness, and it is likely Socrates' last words meant that death is the cure-and freedom, of the soul from the body. The Roman philosopher Seneca attempted to emulate Socrates' death by hemlock when forced to commit suicide by the Emperor Nero.
