Why did Socrates, one of history’s greatest philosophers, make so many enemies in Athens? In this video, we explore how Socrates criticized natural philosophers, sophists, and religious zealots, challenging their beliefs in the agora. Protagoras’ famous claim that “man is the measure of all things” represented the relativism Socrates opposed, insisting instead on the search for absolute truth and virtue. By questioning politics, ethics, and religion in public, Socrates inevitably clashed with powerful figures—leading to his trial and condemnation. This video unpacks the conflict between Socrates and his rivals in Ancient Greece.
