In reality, the greatest blessings come by way of madness, when it is sent as a gift of the gods.

“This fable has been written against those men
Who oppress the innocent for trumped-up reasons.”
Haec propter illos scripta est homines fabula
qui fictis causis innocentes opprimunt. #Phaedrus

“Some should know this tale is about them:
Their private business safeguards their own affairs
And they brag about accomplishments that are not there.”
Hoc in se dictum debent illi agnoscere
quorum privata servit utilitas sibi
et meritum inane iactant imprudentibus #Phaedrus

The first prophecies were the words of an oak. Those who lived at that time found it rewarding enough to listen to an oak or a stone, so long as it was telling the truth.

DYK many Rome considered same-sex sex among women monstrous? For leading poets, storytellers, & playwrights such as #Juvenal (d.127), Martial (d.103), #Phaedrus (d.50), & #Plautus (d.184BCE), it did not jibe with their ideal for the Roman woman—marriage & motherhood. #lesbian

Dear Pan, and all ye other gods that dwell here, grant that I may become fair within, and that such outward things that I have may not war against the spirit within me. - Socrates, in Plato’s ‘Phaedrus’ 279B

Masallara kulak verip, ders almak gerek.
"Haec propter illos scripta est homines fabula qui fictis causis innocentes opprimunt."
(Bu masal, masumları uydurma nedenlerle ezen insanlardan dolayı yazıldı.)
der #Phaedrus bir masalın sonunda.
Görünen o ki; hala ders alınmamış.

#Plato creates a #philosophical #dialogue to #alleviate or #eliminate the difficulty of depending on symbols and to exercise the memory. In #Plato's #Phaedrus says of an Egyptian fable against writing -causes people to #neglect the exercise of #memory and to depend on #symbols.

So it is with the follower of each of the other Gods; he lives, so far as he is able, honoring and imitating that God.

Die Dinge sind nicht immer das, was sie zu sein scheinen. Der erste Eindruck täuscht Viele. Und nur die Klugheit einiger Weniger nimmt wahr, was so gründlich verborgen schien. #Phaedrus

Many ask me: what's your favourite #PlatoDialogue? I like Symposium. #Phaedrus is sublime, but mostly descriptive/narrative. In terms of dramatic tension, the most accomplished work to me is #Protagoras. It's also the first text ever to enunciate the law of contradiction.

For anyone questioning how far recent #AI introduces new educational issues, it's worth remembering Plato discussed whether novel language technologies would enhance or diminish human cognitive capacities 2400 years ago, and whether the tech creates a pale imitation of thought. #Phaedrus #GenAI
