Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle

Today in class, we took more notes on Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. Socrates was a very influential person who came up with the socratic method which is asking many questions. He was put to death for impiety and corrupting the youth of Athens. He was sentenced to death and was forced to drink hemlock even though many people were against putting him to death. Plato was a student of socrates and Aristotle was a student of Plato at the academy. He helped foster the idea of Athens as an intellectual destination.
