Would Socrates Be A Celebrity Today?

Written by Maya Talisman Frost


Last week, as I was standing inrepparttar checkout line of my local grocery store, I found myself staring atrepparttar 123419 dozen or so magazines on display. As I gazed uponrepparttar 123420 various photos and headlines praising or trashingrepparttar 123421 celebrity du jour, I got to thinking.

What kind of celebrity would Socrates be if he were alive today? How would we treat him?

In what way would he ask his questions inrepparttar 123422 21st century? He never wrote much of anything--we know his ideas mostly throughrepparttar 123423 work of his student, Plato. Would he give speeches? Would he have televised debates? Would he have his own talk show? If so, who would be his guests?

Socrates was famous in his day. He was loved and admired for his ideas and his relentless questioning, and he was despised forrepparttar 123424 same things. Like all celebrities, he had his fans and he had his detractors.

Socrates himself said, "I am utterly disturbing and I create only perplexity." He understood his role as a provocateur, but he also hadrepparttar 123425 best of intentions. He simply wanted to give peoplerepparttar 123426 opportunity to question themselves in order to become better humans.

There are a lot of celebrities who push our buttons,but we don't tend to think of them as philosophers!

What if we did? What if we could separaterepparttar 123427 thoughts fromrepparttar 123428 thinkers? We tend to dismissrepparttar 123429 whole package--the persona--instead of taking a good look at revolutionary or inflammatory ideas. We marginalize our radical thinkers.

The rapper Eminem is a radical thinker, though many would say he is just plain radical. In his way, he is true to himself. He has broken through to mainstream consciousness because he touched a nerve--and got a lot of press.

Would Socrates be a rapper today? Would he be a professor? A performance artist? How would we regard him?

He was notoriously unattractive. Would photographers surround him, taking photos to sell torepparttar 123430 tabloids?Would we care about him if he didn't make it onrepparttar 123431 cover of our favorite magazines?

At first glance, it may seem that we are sorely lacking in philosophers today. Perhaps we have an outdated idea of what a philosopher looks like. Not all philosophers have beards! In fact, that's what inspired me to startrepparttar 123432 Institute for Beardless Philosophy. Though decidedly tongue-in-cheek, its premise is one we need to embrace.
