1. Find an example from your life illustrating whether you agree or disagree with the Sophists: does rhetoric create a truth useful at the moment (kairos)? Use your second and/or third paragraphs to explain whom you side with: Callices, Socrates, Phaedrus, or Gorgias? Be clear, though. In 200-250 words, answer the prompt.
2. Share a story about a moment in your life when you did not fulfill the myth of Socrates’ charioteer — when you let either reason or desires run away with your “chariot.” Be specific.
Treat your assignment as a narrative. Begin with your anecdote.
Write paragraphs with strong topic sentences at the top.
