Concluding First Part of My Greek Philosophy In Verse
**Dear Readers , - Kindly readon from my first Verse on "Introduction to Ancient Greek Philosophy in Verse", I had to post my work serially due to restriction on the length of each poem per entry ! Thanks !
(The Sopists - concluding portion)
Sophistry soon degenerated into selfish and
fallacious reasoning ;
And was rejected by many thinking beings !
Time was now ripe for an authentic sage , -
To restore Philosophy with reason , virtue and
common sense ,
And such a sage was Socretes- who came to
Philosophy's defence ,
Which I shall cover in my Part-II dear friends !
Concluding My Part -I of Greek Philosophy :
With this my readers I come to the end of
Part-I of Ancient Greek Philosophy in Verse .
I had aimed at simplicity for easy understanding ,
Without sacrificing authenticity ;
Being a true lover of Philosophy !
The Second Part would cover the Age of Socrates ,
The Cynics , and The Cyrenaic ;
Stopping short of Plato and his ideal World of
Forms .
Thanks for reading !
