Meno

Meno is a philosophical dialogue by Plato that explores the nature of knowledge and virtue. It examines whether virtues like courage and justice can be taught or if they are innate. Through a conversation between Socrates and a young man named Meno, the dialogue introduces the concept of recollection—suggesting that learning is a process of remembering knowledge we already possess. It also discusses the nature of true understanding versus belief. Overall, Meno encourages deep reflection on the origins of human excellence and what it means to truly know something.
