Socrates (450 B.C.E. ~ V B.C.E.) was an ugly guy but with an inner beauty (Mind), he did not write anything about himself, he have the art of discourse, dialogue and dialectics (argumentation). He was born in Athens, Greece. He said that you only can learn in cities to understand things. Opposite of naturalism. He starts to think in society.
Socrates thought that wisdom should not be charged because wisdom belongs to everyone, so he went to a sophist school and he make a dialogue to the person who was teaching and later he transform it into his own class. "Im teaching but not charging, because im a philosopher" he said to all the people in the school. He started to fight against people until the school was empty and all the people go with Socrates to learn.
He said that man is not nature, the thing that makes us humans is reason: to think with a purpose and this let us have societys. A society means a group of people that share things like the location, historical time, cultural elements. also said that societys are not perfect because of their organization.
Socrates also talks about ethics: if things are good or bad: what makes you happy is good. He said that inside of him there is a divine voice.
Later he get suicide because people blame him for perverting kids and for inserting new gods.
