Document Summary
These are the four questions on the progress exam 2013. Remember that one of the four will be compulsory and you will need to answer two questions in total. Each question will be worth 50%: give a detailed account of socrates" theory of recollection argument for the immortality of the soul which he bases on the theory that learning is just recollection of the forms. Make certain that you give a detailed account of the relationship that plato thinks exists between the form of absolute equality and some equal sticks or equal stones. Do you think that this argument would work just as well for the form of absolute. Socrates states that if one sees a body (lyre) or clothing of someone they will immediately be reminded of that person. Socrates introduces the theory of forms stating that there is such thing as equality itself such as equal sticks or equal stones.
