I found it highly appropriate background reading to understand today’s horrible war in Ukraine. My question popped up again while reading the Gates of Europe, a History of Ukraine written in 2015 by Serhii Plokhy (Mykhailo Hrushevsky Professor of Ukrainian history at Harvard University). That astonished me coming from a small country with a large variation in Dutch/Germanic dialects: two A-languages, Dutch and Frisian, one B language., Limburgian, and within all three an enormous variation in dialects and accents. To my surprise the standard answer was always negative, everywhere people seem to have spoken standard Belarusian, Russian or Ukrainian. One of my recurring questions was how many Slavic variants or Slavic dialects were spoken in the countries of the Soviet Union. In my early days with EuroClio, I travelled widely in the countries of the former Soviet Union. ![]() ![]() ![]() To refute the oracle, Socrates calls upon numerous men of wealth and status who are considered wise in Athenian society. ![]() ![]() Pythia replied no, confounding Socrates, who believes he is not very wise at all. ![]() Elaborating on this, he explains that his old friend Chaerephon once asked Pythia, the oracle of Delphi, if any man is wiser than Socrates. Socrates attributes his negative reputation to “a certain kind of wisdom” (25). Socrates claims that these accusations are far more injurious than the ones before the court because they long ago poisoned the jurors’ minds against him. Before addressing these accusers, Socrates acknowledges that he has long faced similar charges in the court of public opinion, thanks to works published years earlier by the playwright Aristophanes that branded Socrates as dangerous, impious, and corrupt. His formal accusers are Anytus, Meletus, and Lycon, three prominent Athenians of the type Socrates frequently skewers in public. The second charge is for corrupting the youth of Athens, who regularly follow Socrates around as he confronts men of wealth and status with their ignorance. The first charge is for asebeia, or impiety, stemming from accusations that Socrates introduced new gods and rejected the old. In the first part, 71-year-old Socrates addresses and defends himself against the two charges brought before the 500-person jury.
