Continue reading "Pericles Funeral Oration" up to p. 148 (bottom of page, section 42 line 10).
Highlight or underline one or two sentences that strike you as interesting. TRY to choose a sentence that you think might be relevant to the trial - something that might be quoted or refered to in an opening speech by either the prosecution or defense.
COME TO CLASS WITH YOUR MARKED TEXT.
POST ON BLOG -
Make a list of some of the Athenian values that you encountered in the text. Choose one and write a couple of sentences (or more) about why it might be good for the trial of Socrates.
We are not going to read the rest of the oration, so if you are interested you should read the rest on your own. We will move on to the Apology of Plato.
