"Crois-tu qu'une ville serait bien gouvernée, si la loi ordonnait à chacun de tisser et de laver son vêtement, de tisser ses chaussures, sa burette à huile, son étrille et le tout le reste de même, sans mettre la main aux affaires d'autrui..."

Also included are four important letters…

Φαίδων
After an interval of some months or years, and at Phlius, a town of Peloponnesus, the tale of the last hours of Socrates is narrated to Echecrates and other Phliasians by Phaedo the 'beloved disciple.' The Dialogue necessarily takes the form of a narrative, because Socrates has to be described acting as well as speaking. The minutest particulars of the event are interesting to distant friends,…

The positions Hume takes on these topics have been described as paradigmatically…
