Unjust Man Socrates States
760 wordsThrasymachus states that 'justice is simply the interest of the stronger' (338 c). In order to support this notion, he states that people who are in power in government make laws, and since these people design these laws, they will serve the interests of themselves.

Energy Levels Black Holes
969 wordsThe problem of continuum versus discreteness seems to be related to the issue of infinity and finiteness.

But continuity can be finite and the connection is, most times, misleading rather than illuminating. Intuit...

Lot Of Money Ancient Greek
756 wordsWhat role does the chorus play in the play? In ancient Greek plays, the role of the chorus was to sing lyrical passages. The lyrical passages were set up by the writer and the chorus would then perform dance movements to compliment those lyrics. In todays day and age, it is the cast members in many musicals who depict the role as the chorus.
