Socrates' Influence on Plato and Aristotle

Abstract: A 6 page paper discussing Socrates' lasting influence immediately following his death. Certainly Socrates (c. 469-399 BC) was not the first of the Greek philosophers, but he was the first of those that gain continued attention millennia after they lived. Socrates had direct influence on both Plato and Plato's student Aristotle. The purpose here is to use Plato's The Republic and Aristotle's Poetics to demonstrate. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
