One day I was sniffing about in the Accademia in Venice, with a silly smile on my face, having taken my fill of some truly magnificent Venetian masterpieces which included ‘St. John the Baptist’ by Titian, the truly remarkable ‘Transport of the Body of St. Mark’ by Tintoretto and sighing over the Bellini’s and Tiepolo’s! Having thought enough was enough, I began making my way towards the exit when I decided to stick my nose into what is the oldest part of the museum, the former Church of Santa Maria della Carita’, because I love the gothic atmosphere, inside part of what was the first of the great schools of Venice, the Scuola della Carita’, founded in 1260. This is room 23 of the Accademia today and obviously was the church of the old school and well worth a look when you are next here. I moved towards the end of what must have been the altar area and there it was? Temporarily displayed here as it turned out, awaiting its return home to the cathedral in the little town of Castelfranco Veneto, some 40 ks inland from Venice, I was lucky enough to see it in this lovely space.

Socrates was the first of the three famous Athenian philosophers (the other two being Aristotle and Plato). Born in the Greek capital in the year 469 BC, he lived during the reign of Pericles at a time when the Athenian empire was at its peak. It is believed that he did not come from an elite family, in fact evidence points to his father being a stone-carver, a skill at which he himself developed and used on occasion. His mother worked as midwife helping to attend to thousands of women around Athens.
After the Peloponnesian war had ended, Socrates who was then in his late forties, began to ask deep questions about the nature of existence and the world that surrounded him. For example, he would question “what is beauty”, “what is wisdom’, and “what is the correct direction to take”. These questions were rhetorical, that is to say, he was aware that they were almost impossible to answer, and that there could often be no conclusive answer.
