Aiming to impart the skill of closely reading classical philosophical texts (in translation), the first five of the weekly tutorials will focus on Plato's Meno; the last five on extracts from Aristotle's works. The lectures will emphasise a wider historical perspective, making reference to Homer and Hesiod, as well as to the Sophists (who were rivals to the philosophers in providing higher education). Focal point of the lectures will be broadly Socrates question How should we live?, thus allowing for some thematic unity, while encouraging excursions into other important topics such as epistemology and metaphysics. Assessment methods and deadlines Formative assessment: 2 x 1000 word essays Summative assessment: a two-hour exam in May/June (Period II)

4 Suggested essay questions Write a formative essay on a topic from each of the sections: Section I: What is Socrates' conception of happiness? Answer by reference to the Apology, the Crito, the Meno, or the Phaedo. Is Meno s paradox an impediment to Socrates project of enquiry? Is the theory of recollection a plausible account of how we acquire knowledge? Is virtue teachable? Answer by reference to the Meno or the Protagoras. What is the difference between knowledge and true belief in the Meno? Which conception of happiness do you find most appealing, Hesiod's, Homer's, or Socrates'? Justify your choice. Section II: Does Aristotle provide a persuasive account of wisdom? Discuss by reference to the Metaphysics I.1-4. Explain Aristotle's concept of nature as the inner principle of change of natural things (Phys. II). Why should we think that natural processes are for the sake of some good? Discuss by reference to Physics II.7-8. What is Aristotle's conception of the soul? Is Aristotle's account of the human function plausible? What makes a life good? What is the role of other goods besides virtuous action? Is Aristotle's account of virtue plausible?
5 Suggested additional readings In general, reading more Plato and Aristotle is the best way to improve one's understanding of their thought. There are good collections of their works. Plato Although the Hackett volume Plato: complete works, edited by John Cooper, is very handy and worth having, it leaves out the often substantial introductions which the translators add to the text. M. Frede's introduction to the Protagoras, for example, is a helpful overview and worth reading. These introductions also contain useful hints for secondary literature. Socrates Ahbel-Rappe and Kamketar (eds.), A Companion to Socrates Brickhouse, and Smith, Plato s Socrates Vlastos, Socrates: Ironist and Moral Philosopher Plato Benson (ed.), A Companion to Plato Fine (ed.) Plato 1: Metaphysics and Epistemology, and Plato 2: Ethics, Politics, Religion, and the Soul. Fine, Oxford Handbook of Plato Irwin, Plato s Ethics. Kraut (ed.), Cambridge Companion to Plato. Aristotle Jonathan Barnes has edited the revised Oxford translation (two volumes) which is worth having. Most of the texts we cover are in Fine and Irwin Aristotle: Introductory Readings -- which is an abridged version or their Aristotle: Selections. For the Eudemian Ethics (NB NOT Nicomachean Ethics), use either Kenny s translation (Oxford World Classics) or Inwood/Woolf s (Cambridge). In general, the Clarendon Oxford Series contains very good translations of and commentaries on select books of Aristotle's. You might want to get hold of M. Woods translation and commentary of (part of) the Eudemian Ethics. Good introductions are by Ackrill, Aristotle the Philosopher and Lear, Aristotle, the Desire to Understand. Good collections are Anagnostopoulos, A Companion to Aristotle Barnes, Cambridge Companion to Aristotle (which contains a very full and commented bibliography which should form an excellent starting point for further research on pretty much any topic in Aristotle) Shields, Oxford Handbook of Aristotle
