Socrates and the Pursuit of Wisdom Prompt: Philosophy is a pursuit of wisdom, exemplified in the figure of Socrates. In a paper united by a thesis and organizational statements that appear early (i.e. in the first paragraph), explain what Socrates meant by wisdom. Briefly describe Socrates' method for pursuing wisdom and, summarizing some of the main points you have gathered from the readings, explain how Socrates' pursuit relates to a meaningful life.
