show moreSocrates piles on the absurdities, but Meno behaves like a Platonist and fails to react to any of the obvious inconsistencies. To take one example, in addition to the immortal soul routinely dying and coming to be, it now has seen everything and because of this it has learned everything. Among the things that it knows is virtue. In other words, the soul has seen virtue. It has seen virtue either in this world or in Hades, the two places whose contents Socrates declares the soul to have seen. All of this the Platonist worth his salt will ignore in favour of some Theory of Ideas which so far has nowhere been mentioned (I do not refer to Platonism in this episode).
