I thought that the Apology was hard to understand and was a little wordy for me. The first part was clear for me in understanding the reasons why Socrates was being convicted. In my opinion I think that I could see why the jury would be angry at Socrates for what he did. On the other hand I think that he is a wise man and very educated and should believe in what he wants.
I agree with you about the wordy part. I feel like I had to look up so many words just to make it through.
ReplyDeleteI also agree it was hard to understand, it made the reading feel ten times longer.
ReplyDeleteI think Socrates was a wise man too. Oh, and it was a little wordy for me too. Some parts I had to re-read to make sure I understood the text
ReplyDeleteGlad I'm not the only one who had difficulty in understanding the text. But I do agree with you on Socrates being a wise man.
ReplyDeleteGreat post, Alanna!
