Sócrates Viajante
Algumas Figuras
Abstract
This article aims to present the character of Plato's Socrates in The Republic as a kind of traveler, using some images of travel that Plato employs at the beginning of his dialogue: the catabasis, the theōriā, nautical voyages, and long-distance journeys. The aim is to demonstrate that even the very sedentary Socrates, who, according to Diogenes Laertius, traveled only in times of war, or even Socrates, the most deeply rooted Athenian of philosophers, can also be seen from the perspective of a certain nomadism.
