What does Socrates believe is important for his fellow citizens to understand?

Focus your paper on a clear claim. Position your claim at the end of your introductory paragraph, and defend your claim through your paper's argument.

Your claim should have the form, “Socrates believes … because …”

At some point in your discussion of Socrates’ argument, explain why this claim would help the citizens of his civilization, why it is important for them to understand it, or why it would be foolish to ignore it.

Please proofread your paper. I encourage you to turn in a second or third draft of your paper.
