Socrates was very concerned with the moral complacency he saw in his fellow Athenian citizens. He watched as they lived their lives in a selfish, unreflective haze. His solution was to act as a moral “gadfly,” stinging his fellow citizens into self-examination. Socrates stood in the marketplace daily, forcing anyone he encountered to reflect on their lives, beliefs, and motivations. Socrates was trying to make himself and others realize, in the clearest way possible, how much our lives are geared toward self-deceptive and self-destructive behavior. He wanted us to know this like Ivan now knows he is going to die. This led to his development of elenchus… an intense form of dialogue we now refer to as the Socratic Method.
