Philosophers




These people who seek answers to difficult questions are called philosophers. A philosopher means lovers of wisdom. People who seek for truth no matter where the search led them. Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle were the first three philosophers. They questioned themselves after the war, so they wanted answers. Socrates died because he was sentenced to death. He corrupted the youth of Athens and neglected the city gods. Aristotle made the scientific method which is one of the things that we still use today. Plato wrote a book called The Republic that was a system of how to live by it.
