Abstract

In Socratic discussions there always have to be historic abysses whichallude to the character himself and the concrete figure of an Athenian. However, theteaching or praxis received from that discipline shape a legacy which philosophy cannotstop rethinking every now and then or in morally critical moments like the presentones. Here it is attempted to recover parts of that philosophy which from its genesisbelongs to man as such, to what he is and will continue to be his mystery.
