From prudence toy self-knowledge: Charmides of Plato dialogue

Abstract

The platonic speech Charmides belongs to Plato’s early writings and consists of a renarration of the dialogue by Socrates to one of his friends who is not named. The basic topic of the conservation is prudence, which is one of the virtues that render a man “righteous”.Socrates has just returned from the Potidea siege in 431 B. C., and asks about the philosophical activity of young people. Kritias promises to introduce him to his cousin Charmides. Socrates was enthusiastic by the young man’s external appearance and expresses the wish to inspect whether he has a beautiful soul, too.
