Abstract:
Abstract The overview of Sophistic proposed by Philostratus in the introduction to the Lives of the Sophists creates a serious problem of interpretation. The system of two Sophistics: Old Sophistic and Second Sophistic as the author of the Lives defines them, appears to involve weaknesses and contradictions which bring into question the credibility of Philostratus. One might therefore believe that the Philostratean sysem of two Sophistics, through its apparent incoherence, in no way clarifies the question of the definition of a sophist.

This essay provides an introduction to the question of the contribution of the ancient sophists to aesthetics in Western art. It commences by examining the persistent analogies to visual arts in negative and positive discussions of sophistry, both philosophical and rhetorical, and proceeds to examine sophistic rhetoric in Gorgias, Aristides, Lucian, Philostratus and Byzantine ekphrasis, culminating with Philostratus’ discussions of mimesis and phantasia in Apollonius of Tyana.

Abstract:
There is no category of thought more deliberately or explicitly relegated to a subordinate role in Plato’s dialogues than Sophists and sophistry. It is due to Plato’s influence that terms “sophist” and “sophistry” handed down to us have unilaterally negative associations—synonymous with lies and deception, obscurantism and false reasoning. There are several reasons to be dubious of this standard view of the Sophists and their practices. The primary reason addressed in this essay is that the surviving fragments of the Sophists do not accord with this standard view, a discrepancy that is particu

The focus is on his statements about the activity of the sophists, literary and rhetorical sophistry, as well as the sophisti-cal concept of education in general.

Abstract:
To examine the sophists and their legacy, it is necessary to reconsider the relation between Socrates and the sophists. The trial of Socrates in 399 BCE seems to have changed people’s attitudes towards and conceptions of the sophists drastically, because Socrates was the first and only “sophist” executed for being a sophist. In the fifth century BCE, people treated natural philosophy, sophistic rhetoric and Socratic dialogue without clear distinctions, often viewing them as dangerous, impious and damaging to society. After the trial of Socrates, however, Plato sharply dissociated Socrates from

The essay will initially focus on the historiographical category of the sophists to identify a line that connects these intellectuals to the new vision of society, the democratic polis, and the community that presides over legal and judicial life.

Abstract:
Ever since Plato, the Sophists have been seen as teaching “the art of persuasion”, particularly the art (or skill) of persuasive speaking in the lawcourts and the assembly on which success in life depended. I argue that this view is mistaken. Although Gorgias describes logos as working to persuade Helen, he does not present persuasion as the goal of his own work, nor does any other Sophist see persuasion as the primary aim of his logoi. Most sophistic discourse was composed in the form of antilogies (pairs of opposed logoi), in which category I include works like Helen where the other side - t

Although the overall impact of sophists is apparent as early as the Classical Period of ancient Greece, this work emphasizes the renaissance of sophistic rhetoric during the so-called Second Sophistic, a movement that flourished slightly before and throughout the Roman Empire.

The present study contends with the commodification and decadence of Hellenism and paideia (intellectual and cultural sophistication) during the Second Sophistic. It charts the path that Hellenism took from an esoteric ethnic essence to a universal and inclusive ethic. Given this inclusiveness, anyone in the empire who adopted a paideutic character had the chance of becoming a "Hellene," especially sophists. Upon establishing an ecumenical Hellenism, competition for audiences with other forms of entertainment compelled sophists to adopt a more theatrical lecture style, where the aesthetics of

Abstract:
This chapter explores how the nature/convention distinction is taken up by Plato and many of his Sophistic predecessors. It argues that the philosophically most fundamental motivation of Plato's Republic is to reply to a staple proposition of fifth-century Greek thought, a proposition propounded by many of Plato's Sophistic predecessors: that there is a distinction between nature and convention, phusis and nomos, and that nomos, convention, human law, cannot be derived from nature and even contradicts nature. The chapter first considers the historical importance of Sophism as well as Sophistic universalism before discussing Socrates' response to the Sophists, particularly Glaucon, and Plato's arguments against a contractarian account of justice. It also examines the concepts of authoritarianism, totalitarianism, and the lower class, along with Aristotle's rejection of the Sophist opposition between nature and convention.

Abstract:
In the Sophist, Plato makes the Eleatic Visitor define sophistic as an expertise (τέχνη‎), in stark contrast to the account of sophistic in the Gorgias. This paper focuses on the almost entirely overlooked problem of what it could mean for sophistic to be an expertise. Sophistic, in the Sophist, is the ability to appear wise (without being so). This paper argues that sophistic counts as an expertise because the sophist can explain the causes of sophistic success and failure in terms of a true but incomplete account of wisdom as irrefutability. The account of wisdom as irrefutability is true, but it turns out that irrefutability, too, can be real or merely apparent. The full account of wisdom must include an account of true, by contrast with merely apparent, refutation. The knowledge of true refutation turns out to be identical with the knowledge of forms and their exclusion relations. Recent arguments of Lesley Brown’s that sophistic is not, by Plato’s own criteria, an expertise, are rebutted. The paper’s positive account of sophistic as an expertise relies on the distinction between likenesses (proportion-preserving copies) or appearances (proportion-distorting copies). This distinction, which has no parallel in earlier dialogues, makes it possible to see how there can be an expertise of producing merely apparent Fs without knowledge of what is really F.

Abstract:
Abstract “Sophistry” is a term of abuse. Used by the greatest thinkers of ancient Greece to characterize their opponents as purveyors of sham wisdom, “sophistry” connotes deceptive reasoning and rhetoric that sacrifices truth on the altar of social power. As characterized by Socrates (ca. 470–399), Plato (ca. 428–348 or 347), and Aristotle (384–322), the Sophists were the ones who entered the field of philosophy armed with talent, skill, and broad information, but refused to submit to the reconstruction of popular opinion required by honest logic and philosophical insight. Sophistic oratory, whether spoken or written—when it was not confrontational and abusive—was marked by a pleasing and ambiguous mix of social propriety, vague idealism, and partisan self-interest. Yet it was the Sophist Isocrates (436–335) who, more than anyone else, was responsible for the burst of golden rule thinking that entered fourth-century Greek culture.

The sophistic revival was an important part of the new prestige and economic vigour which accrued to these cities under the high empire.
