What are the similarities of Socrates Aristotle and Plato?
For Plato what was ultimately real was the notion or concepts of things. He decreed that what we see in the physical world are merely abstract representations of universal concepts. Thus, Plato believed, that to truly understand reality one must transcend the physical reality into the world of ideas which is understood as Platonic Realism. Plato's main idea of the true nature of reality centres on the idea that abstract instances of universals are what creates the physical reality and that one cannot sensually perceive these universals as they have no spatial or temporal properties. He argued that all things have a universal form, such as a book, that exists outside of the physical book of which we can sensual perceive. We can look at a book but we can also study the form or the concept of the book thus giving us the particular book and the universal form of the book, Plato taught. Plato rested on the principles of one-over-many, self-predication and non-self-partaking to explain the existence of universals. These principles culminate in the realisation of platonic realism, and are the foundational pillars for the platonic world of forms, and Plato's conception of reality.AnswerSocrates was Plato's teacher, so alot of his ideas are shared by Plato.

Name two historical characters in Raphael's school of Athens?
"The two thinkers in the very center, Aristotle (on the right) and Plato (on the left, pointing up) have been enormously important to Western thinking generally, and in different ways, their different philosophies were incoporated into Christianity. Plato holds his book called The Timaeus. Plato points up because in his philosophy the changing world that we see around us is just a shadow of a higher, truer reality that is eternal and unchanging (and include things like goodness and beauty). For Plato, this otherworldly reality is the ultimate reality, and the seat of all truth, beauty, justice, and wisdom. Aristotle holds his hand down, because in his philosophy, the only reality is the reality that we can see and experience by sight and touch (exactly the reality dismissed by Plato). Aristotle's Ethics (the book that he holds) "emphasized the relationships, justice, friendship, and government of the human world and the need to study it."
Is anyone wiser than Socrates?
Depends on who and when (what time period) you ask.Yes, Plato and Aristotle.I disagree with the above answer. Socrates was Plato's mentor, and Plato was Aristotle's mentor. Some of the greatest ideas in Plato's dialogues were spoken out of the mouth of Socrates. While it is true that Plato wrote the dialogues, it is not clear where Socrates's thought ends and Plato's begins. But it is true that Plato had enormous admiration for Socrates's thought and argument structure, so it only stands to reason that many of the great ideas laid down in the dialogues were originated by Socrates.Besides, there is reason to believe that Democritus was smarter than all of them as he wrote books on a wide range of subjects including ethics, physics, mathematics and history. He also came up with the idea that matter was composed of atoms thousands of years before science proved their existence. Plato wanted to burn his books but they were so widely read it would have been impossible. However, none of his books have survived to this day. To truly know who's wiser than Socrates is to be wiser than Socrates yourself.Is there anyone wiser than Socrates? It is best to discover that answer by oneself.This subject is an interesting one. The Idea of quantifying knowlege is bold, abstract, and irrational. To try to create a level system for knowlege, or wisdom is to seek to conquer, and control this intangible source of freedom. By saying "I am more wise than you," defeats the purpose of comparing each other because it has already been proven in that one sentence who was the wiser. Being humble is important to wisdom, it is like its pillar of strength. Humbleness avoids conflict, and therefore avoids arrogance, which inturn sidesteps competitiveness, that is the root of irrationality.To ask the question who is wiser, is only an example of how that ancient wisdom has come and gone. It is also an Insult to Socrates memory and his teachings. P.S. I hate to make this sound like an aggressive response, I love the question.To be honest, I believe that Socrates is the wisest person as he was the first. The original. Who TAUGHT Plato. Plato was so inspired by Socrates that he founded a school. Then proceeded to teach Aristotle. So Socrates is the original and the inspiration for future great philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle.
