Euthydemus - Platonic Dialogue Oxford University A performance of the Euthydemus in an English adaptation. The Euthydemus did more than most of Plato’s works to give a bad name to the 'sophists', itinerant teachers whom he will have encountered in his youth when some of them clashed with his hero Socrates. Here his dialogue about two sophists is transferred to a twentieth-century setting, Princeton University, where the adaptation was performed and tape-recorded in 1958. Local faculty and students, speaking in their own names, take the parts of Plato's characters, giving a dramatic and sometimes comical lesson as to how philosophical inquiry ought to be conducted. In order of appearance, the roles are:Professor C.C. Pratt as Crito, a crony of Socrates; Professor Carl Hempel as Socrates;John Lucas as Euthydemus, a visiting sophist;Donald Clemons as Ctesippus, a young man;Richard Sykes as Dionysodorus, another visiting sophist;Carlotta Sherwood (alias ‘Valerie Stephens’) as Cleinias, Ctesippus’ beloved.Page numbers against p Euthydemus by Unknown Loyal Books Euthydemus (Εὐθύδημος) and Dionysodorus the sophists discuss the meaning of words with Socrates.
