However, a contemporary critique of Socrates can be found in Aristophanes’ Νεφέλαι, which portrays him in a satirical way. In this course, students will read and discuss excerpts from this comedy. In addition to the cultural and historical aspects, special attention will be paid to the acquisition of new vocabulary.
