THE EXAMINATION OF PLATO’S REPUBLIC IN TERMS OF DISCUSSION METHOD

Summary/Abstract: Plato, in Republic, performs different methods and tactics in order to put across the ideas he argued or to reject the claims of others. To open and pursue the discussion by asking consecutive questions and to make productive concept and sentence analysis are among the methods and tactics that can be primarily stated. The book mainly based on the concepts such as justice, favor, friendship, virtue, duty and the queries upon the concepts. Plato uses very effective tactics in his discussions. Questioning, proposing and eliminating the alternatives, asking proof, making people think of the possibilities and comparing are some of these effective tactics. Although logic is not established and systematic as science, reasoning is made and many concepts are defined and classified.
