Plato
(427-348 BC) Plato was born in Athens. Coming from a noble family, he aspired to a political career, but soon became upset with the "tyrannic democracy" of Athens, especially when it put his teacher, Socrates (469-399 BC) to death. Plato "turned to philosophy in search of an alternative to the stable and unjust public life of the time. He also sought unity behind the changing impressions of the visible universe." In Athens, Plato, eventually set up a school known as the Academy. Plato believed that there was another world beyond this changeable and destructible one in which we live, one consisting of unchanging eternal Forms. He asserted that what we see and touch are only very distantly related to the ultimate realities that exist. He gives, in his work the Republic , the famous comparison of the human condition with that of prisoners chained facing the inner wall of a cave, so that all they can see are mere shadows of objects in the cave, knowing nothing of the world outside. An example of one of the ultimate realities is Euclidean geometry with its theorems concerning ideal objects that do not and cannot exist in the three dimensional world in which we live, ideal objects such as straight lines without thickness and perfect circles, and other such timeless objects. And just as there are no perfect circles in this world we can not have morally perfect men, no absolutely perfect examples of courage or justice; we can only imagine perfectly moral standards. Drawing a distinct line of demarcation between the Ideal and the actual world, defines the "dualist." Such a belief does not define a religionist, but such a philosophy lends itself to a religious interpretation that the soul, or mind, is a non-material entity which can exist apart from the body of man, and that the soul is immaterial and immortal; - divine worship soon ensues. Though Plato does not go into any definitive statements on the subject of religion

Plato - (about 427-347 B.C.)
Plato is probably one of the greatest philosophers of all times, if not the greatest. Plato was born to an aristocratic family in Athens. His father, Ariston, was believed to have descended from the early kings of Athens. Perictione, his mother, was distantly related to the 6th-century B.C. lawmaker Solon. When Plato was a child, his father died, and his mother married Pyrilampes, who was an associate of the statesman Pericles. Plato's original name was Aristocles, but in his school days he received the nickname Platon (meaning "broad" ) because of his broad shoulders. It was mostly in Pyrilampes' house that Plato was brought up. Aristotle writes that when Plato was a young man he studied under Cratylus who was a student of Heracleitus, famed for his cosmology which is based on fire being the basic material of the universe. It almost certain that Plato became friends with Socrates when he was young, for Plato's mother's brother Charmides was a close friend of Socrates. The Peloponnesian War was fought between Athens and Sparta between 431 BC and 404 BC.

Bernard F. Suzanne Platon et ses dialogues Plato's Autobiography When I was young, I felt like so many in that situation: I expected, as soon as I would become master of myself, to go straight to the city's affairs. And here is how I happened to find the state of public affairs then: many being dissatisfied with the existing constitution, a revolution took place... [This revolution took place in 404 BCE ; Plato was born in all probability in 427 BCE, so he was about 23 at the time.] [Plato belonged to one of the leading families of Athens: his father Ariston was said to descend from Kodros, the last legendary king of Athens, and the family of his mother Perictione was connected to Solon; Critias, who played a leading role in the government of the Thirty, was his mother's cousin, and Charmides, another one of the Thirty, his mothers' brother.] ... who immediately asked me to join them, as in something fit for me. Feeling not the least surprised, owing to my youth, I expected them to govern the city so as to lead it from a life of injustice toward a just behavior, and so I watched with the utmost attention what they would do, only to see these men make in very little time the former state of affairs look like a golden age. Among other things, they called on my friend

THE UNWRITTEN DOCTRINES: PLATO'S ANSWER TO SPEUSIPPUS

II. Other Theories on the Late Period

III. The Skeptics

IV. The Unitarians and the Revisionists
...
XII. Notes

As can be gleaned from the title, I claim that Plato did have unwritten doctrines and that at least some of these doctrines were intended as an answer to Speusippus. We know that Speusippus refused to believe in the existence of Platonic forms, and there is good reason to believe (as I shall argue later) that one of his reasons for denying the existence of forms was that he accepted that notorious passage from Plato's Parmenides , the Third Man argument. If so, then if Plato thought this objection valid, he ought to have revised his theory. But if Plato thought the objection was invalid, then he needed either to answer this argument or, failing that, to deliver an ad hominem attack against Speusippus (for example, by finding some flaw in Speusippus' own system). Now there is little evidence that Plato ever thought the Third Man valid or that he revised his theory of forms so as to avoid it. Nor is there any evidence that Plato ever answered the Third Man argument, at least to Speusippus' satisfaction. The only information that we have about Speusippus in connection with the theory of forms is that he rejected it; we are not told that he changed his mind on this matter. So, there is no reason to believe that Plato ever answered the Third Man to Speusippus' satisfaction. Consequently, Plato had to find some sort of flaw in the system espoused by Speusippus, and the flaw that Plato found can be inferred from what Aristotle said about the unwritten doctrines. The end result of all this reasoning is that Aristotle emerges as a much more reliable interpreter of Plato than has formerly been thought.

http://faculty.washington.edu/smcohen/320/cave.htm
The Allegory of the Cave
  • Plato realizes that the general run of humankind can think, and speak, etc., without (so far as they acknowledge) any awareness of his realm of Forms.
  • The allegory of the cave is supposed to explain this.
  • In the allegory, Plato likens people untutored in the Theory of Forms to prisoners chained in a cave, unable to turn their heads. All they can see is the wall of the cave. Behind them burns a fire. Between the fire and the prisoners there is a parapet, along which puppeteers can walk. The puppeteers, who are behind the prisoners, hold up puppets that cast shadows on the wall of the cave. The prisoners are unable to see these puppets, the real objects, that pass behind them. What the prisoners see and hear are shadows and echoes cast by objects that they do not see. Here is an illustration of Plato's Cave:
  • Such prisoners would mistake appearance for reality. They would think the things they see on the wall (the shadows) were real; they would know nothing of the real causes of the shadows.
  • So when the prisoners talk, what are they talking about? If an object (a book, let us say) is carried past behind them, and it casts a shadow on the wall, and a prisoner says "I see a book," what is he talking about?

    "Diff'rent Strokes" Kid Dana Plato Dead
    by Joal Ryan

    May 10, 1999, 11:45 AM PT
    Actress Dana Plato, who as a kid costarred on the wholesome sitcom Diff'rent Strokes and as an adult seemed bedeviled by its reputed curse , died of an accidental prescription-drug overdose Saturday in Oklahoma, just one day after declaring on nationwide radio, "I've never been happier." She was 34. Police said Plato apparently OD'd on Valium and the painkiller Loritab. Autopsy results today showed no sign of illness. Toxicology tests are pending. a d v e r t i s e m e n t document.write('');
    On Howard Stern 's radio show on Friday, the ex-sitcom star proclaimed herself drug-free, save for painkillers she'd been on since a wisdom-teeth extraction some 18 weeks ago. "My life is so good now," Plato said. "I've never been happier." Plato, Gary Coleman and Todd Bridges were the TV kids (adopted and otherwise) of wealthy Phillip Drummond, the patriarch of Diff'rent Strokes , played by Conrad Bain. Plato was Kimberly, the dutiful daughter. She appeared on the show from 1978-84, her run ending when she became pregnant in real lifethe condition deemed unsuitable for the virginal Drummond lass.

    Justice as a Virtue
    When we speak of justice as a virtue, we are usually referring to a trait of individuals, even if we conceive the justice of individuals as having some (grounding) reference to social justice. But Rawls and others regard justice as "the first virtue of social institutions" (1971, p. 3), so "justice as a virtue" is actually ambiguous as between individual and social applications. This essay will reflect and explore that ambiguity, though the principal focus will understandably be on the justice of individuals.
    1. History
    Although the idea of social justice based in a social contract is mentioned in Plato's Republic and was known even earlier, the Republic's conception of individual justice is distinctively virtue ethical. To be sure, Plato understands individual justice on analogy with justice "writ large" in the state, but he views the state, or republic, as a kind of organism or beehive, and the justice of individuals is not thought of as primarily involving conformity to just institutions and laws. Rather, the just individual is someone whose soul is guided by a vision of the Good, someone in whom reason governs passion and ambition through such a vision. When, but only when, this is the case, is the soul harmonious, strong, beautiful, and healthy, and individual justice precisely consists in such a state of the soul. Actions are then just if the sustain or are consonant with such harmony.

    Emoticons and smileys emerged on the plato system in the 1970s in a unique and different way.
    http://www.platopeople.com/emoticons.html
    Home About What's New Research Questions ... FAQ PLATO Emoticons
    13 September 2002 The news is floating around the Web right now about the "discovery" of the first online emotion-conveying icon or "emoticon." What readers and reporters are apparently not aware of is that the emoticon or "smiley" being discussed is the first ASCII smiley. Like so many things, PLATO was doing emoticons and smileys, online and onscreen, years earlier. In fact, emoticons on PLATO were already an art form by 1976. PLATO users began doing smiley characters probably as early as 1972 (when PLATO IV came out), but possibly even earlier on PLATO III (still to be determined... old-timer PLATO III users please speak up!).
    A close-up of some famous PLATO smileys. How were these things done? Well, on PLATO, you could press SHIFT-space to move your cursor back one space and then if you typed another character, it would appear on top of the existing character. And if you wanted to get real fancy, you could use the MICRO and SUB and SUPER keys on a PLATO keyboard to move up and down one pixel or more in effect providing a HUGE array of possible emoticon characters. So if you typed "W" then SHIFT-space then "O" then SHIFT-space then "B", "T", "A", "X", all with SHIFT-spaces in between, all those characters would plot on top of each other, and the result would be the smiley as shown above in the "WOBTAX" example. Below are just some examples of smileys and emoticons collected from lesson =m4= on PLATO in the mid 1970s:

    http://www.talewins.com/NF1.htm
    Atlantis
    Revealed
    by Gábor Bihari Sample Chapter 3.3 A Continent in the Atlantic Ocean? This is the classical conception isn't it? An enormous continent lay in the Atlantic Ocean a good ten thousand years ago. As Plato writes, it was bigger than Libya and Asia combined. It was formed by mountains and plains, and criss-crossed by rivers, just as any other continent. Then, one fine day, the whole thing sunk into the ocean, complete with the mountains, plains, trees and bushes. As the penalty of the gods, precisely as Plato described it. If it really was like this, then it is extremely simple to explain all those chance coincidences and unexpected peculiarities, which we listed earlier. It becomes understandable why the Basques are such a strange people: they originate from Atlantis. Why did the Indians have themselves originate from an island laying in the East in the ocean: they are also descendants of the Atlanteans. And the linguistic similarities originated from Atlantis to both the Old World and the New World. While the saga of the flood is an altered form of the history of Atlantis. Thus a continent of this sort would mean a relief from many points of view. Although today it would much rather cause complications, the science of the beginning of the century was very fond of bringing up Atlantis as a convenient explanation for the mysteries listed. According to one conception, the original continent stretched practically from Europe to America, and periodically even dry-land bridges could connect it with these continents. Shallow sea sections separated it from Europe, African and America, but sometimes these narrow channels dried up and made great migrations of the Atlanteans possible. When the continent sank, a few smaller pieces broke off from its edge and remained in the ocean as islands. On the eastern side these would be the Canary, Madeira Islands and the Azores, while on the western - American side of Atlantis - the Bahamas and the Bermuda Islands.
