And when we look back to the vibrancy of Periclean Greece we can say without doubt that it is Plato who we hear.
0:10.31 – 0:19.69 (9.4s)
3
It was his work that brought philosophy out of the dark corner of academia where the common man, if he so choose, could laze in its light.
0:19.92 – 0:29.01 (9.1s)
4
Even now, roughly 2000 years after his death, there are still countless students enveloped in the radiance of his thought.

So let us step into the light and discover Plato.
0:37.28 – 0:41.58 (4.3s)
6
If we are to believe the accounts of Diogenes Laertius we can say that he was born in Athens during the 88th Olympiad, approximately 428 B.C.E.
0:44.58 – 0:54.35 (9.8s)
7
It is thought that at birth his given name was Aristocles, the moniker Plato would only come later on as a result of his unusually wide chest and shoulders, or forehead depending on who you receive your information from.
0:55.08 – 1:08.28 (13.2s)
8
He was said to have been an athlete, even competing and winning medals at the Isthmian games.
1:08.75 – 1:13.94 (5.2s)
9
The game of Dialectics would only come to him after meeting Socrates, and through the careful tutelage of the old Gadfly Plato would develop a passionate love for wisdom which would continue until his death in 348.
1:14.12 – 1:27.82 (13.7s)
10
Upon the death of Socrates, Plato was then only 28, he would come under suspicion from the Athenian authorities for his part in plotting his escape.
1:28.84 – 1:35.82 (7.0s)
11
Because of this his friends thought it best that he set off to see the world.
1:35.82 – 1:39.85 (4.0s)
12
We are uncertain as to the places which he traveled, but it is thought that he went to Egypt, Italy, Judea, and India, but again we simply do not know for certain.
1:40.16 – 1:51.33 (11.2s)
13
He would spend at total of 12 years away from Athens, but would eventually return in the year 387 at the age of 40.
1:52.43 – 2:00.40 (8.0s)
14
It was then that he established one of the earliest known organized schools in western civilization called The Academy.
2:00.86 – 2:08.06 (7.2s)
15
From this tiny school on the outskirts of Athens he would write the famous dialogues which would carry his name through the ages.
2:08.56 – 2:16.83 (8.3s)
16
Seeing his master put to death instilled in him two things, a passionate contempt for democracy and the desire to “find a method wherein the wisest and the best might be discovered, persuaded, and then enabled to rule” (Will Durant).
2:19.97 – 2:35.06 (15.1s)
17
In short he wished to create the ideal state; and so he did in what is perhaps his greatest work The Republic.
2:35.06 – 2:44.71 (9.6s)
18
He began by asking himself why such a state has never come into existence, why with all our ideas has this dream never been realized.
2:45.49 – 2:55.10 (9.6s)
19
His answer – simply human nature, our excess greed and ambition too soon cause states to war over the territory and resources.
2:55.10 – 3:04.49 (9.4s)
20
Additionally if external wars are able to be avoided then class and cultural division will eventually bring internal strife; wherever in the roundabout of governmental systems we begin the fate of each remains the same.
3:04.49 – 3:19.63 (15.1s)
21
See aristocracy, “limiting too narrowly the circle within which power is confined,” (Will Durant) give way to oligarchy, which then fails when “the incautious scramble for immediate wealth,” causes currency to accumulate in the hands of a few creating anger and dissent in the hearts of the many.
3:19.77 – 3:37.78 (18.0s)
22
Once this takes place there can only be one end, that being revolution.
3:37.78 – 3:42.62 (4.8s)
23
“Then democracy comes: the poor overcome their opponents, slaughtering some and banishing the rest; and give to the people an equal share of freedom and power” (557).
3:42.71 – 3:53.01 (10.3s)
24
But even democracy is not immune to the old ball and chain, the failure of the state to adequately educate its people causing demagogues to be elected.
3:53.49 – 4:03.09 (9.6s)
25
Once the state has been thoroughly thrust into chaos by these ill-informed, and ill-intentioned individuals the people demand order, and whoever can deliver the greatest lie becomes the people’s champion, I.E their autocrat.
4:03.70 – 4:18.71 (15.0s)
26
This nauseating roundabout could only be prevented, Plato thought, by understanding first the nature of man.
4:19.15 – 4:26.36 (7.2s)
27
Only then can we proceed, at least with any hope of success, in building our Utopia.
4:26.36 – 4:33.91 (7.6s)
28
Our process should begin by determining what drives individuals to behave in the way that they do, after all, “governments vary as the characters of men vary, . . . States are made out of the human natures which are in them” (544).
4:34.45 – 4:48.67 (14.2s)
29
According to Plato human behavior originates from three main sources; desire, emotion, and knowledge.
4:49.10 – 4:57.21 (8.1s)
30
Desire holds within it impulse and instinct, within emotion is ambition and courage, and intellect and reason are encapsulated within knowledge.
4:57.44 – 5:07.83 (10.4s)
31
How a particular individual behaves depends upon which source he drinks from most readily.
5:07.83 – 5:13.53 (5.7s)
32
Those that take desire as their mainspring are best fit to be the producers of our society; this is to say the farmers, businessmen, and merchants.
5:13.53 – 5:23.13 (9.6s)
33
If emotion is what drives them then these individuals are best fit to be our auxiliaries. They will fill the role of the military officers and top executive aides.
5:23.25 – 5:33.33 (10.1s)
34
Last are the few who take knowledge as their guiding beacon, these esteemed individuals will become our guardians, our rulers, our philosopher kings.
5:33.33 – 5:44.80 (11.5s)
35
If we are to see our state succeed it is paramount that we enable each individual to acquire and perform the given tasks which their nature has best suited them for, “ruin comes,” said Plato, “when the trader, whose heart is lifted up by wealth becomes ruler” (434).
5:45.49 – 6:03.19 (17.7s)
36
In order to ensure that we choose our rulers properly, Plato has put in place an intricate system of selection, I will summarize it here.
6:03.19 – 6:12.33 (9.1s)
37
We must begin with complete equality of educational opportunity, there will be no class, race, or gender barriers in our state; whether it be a man or a woman, all they must do is demonstrate the ability to stand up to our process.
6:13.25 – 6:30.56 (17.3s)
38
Let our search for prospects start by “sending out into the country all the inhabitants of the city who are more than ten years old,” Plato thought that “by taking possession of the children, (they) will be protected from the habits of their parents.” Once there the children will begin their education, and so for the first 10 years their education will consist of predominately physical and musical activities.
6:30.56 – 6:55.76 (25.2s)
39
This sort of early education would allow us to figure out the natural disposition of a child.
6:55.76 – 7:01.55 (5.8s)
40
At this time we should also instill a moral basis, this we will do by supernatural authority.
7:01.55 – 7:09.12 (7.6s)
41
Yes, we must have a religion.
7:09.12 – 7:13.02 (3.9s)
42
Not only will this lend to our moral basis, but it will also enable those individuals who have not been given high office to accept their position without dispute and anger towards those who are placed higher than themselves.
7:13.02 – 7:28.18 (15.2s)
43
Moving on; at twenty years of age we will give to them what is to be their first of two examinations, this will not only be an academic test, but also a test of practical and theoretical skill.
7:28.18 – 7:42.22 (14.0s)
44
Those who fail will become our producers, or the economic class of our state, those who pass will be given ten more years of education.
7:42.22 – 7:52.65 (10.4s)
45
At the age of thirty they will be presented with a second, more difficult examination.
7:52.65 – 7:58.56 (5.9s)
46
Those who fail this test will be become our auxiliaries.
7:58.56 – 8:03.08 (4.5s)
47
After this second examination, the ones who remain will then be taught philosophy for 5 years.
8:03.08 – 8:09.72 (6.6s)
48
This will consist of mainly metaphysics and politics.
8:09.72 – 8:16.75 (7.0s)
49
Once this training is complete they will be sent into the world to be educated by life itself.
8:16.75 – 8:23.19 (6.4s)
50
This last and perhaps most difficult test will continue for 15 years more.
8:23.19 – 8:29.54 (6.4s)
51
Those who have come to the end of their education successfully, now 50 years of age, would become automatically the rulers of the state.
8:29.54 – 8:41.09 (11.5s)
52
It was Plato’s thought that this system would eliminate discrimination based on social status since each would be given an equal chance to become guardians based upon their own merit.
8:41.09 – 8:53.59 (12.5s)
53
It would also eliminate the crux of democracy, which again is its tendency to elect ill-fitted individuals into high public office.
8:53.59 – 9:04.04 (10.4s)
54
After examining this political ideal many of you may be questioning, as Plato did, the practical plausibility of what he has laid out.
9:04.04 – 9:13.50 (9.5s)
55
While it is true that this Utopia of which he speaks has not yet shown itself on the horizon I think we will still gain from developing these ideas and images.
9:13.50 – 9:24.32 (10.8s)
56
It may not be the magic formula to creating the perfect state that we expected, but perhaps we can provide a few ingredients that will aid in the development of another’s state when the time comes that the opportunity presents itself.
9:24.32 – 9:38.63 (14.3s)
57
Outside of the political digressions the entire premise of The Republic remains an ethical one, that being the question of justice.
9:41.64 – 9:50.54 (8.9s)
58
Though with this digression we allowed ourselves the ability to view justice in a larger sense, which Plato thought would give us insight into how we might define it individually.
9:50.70 – 10:02.61 (11.9s)
59
In Plato’s society the basic goal was for each individual to be placed into the role for which he or she is best suited for, in achieving this Plato meets his definition of justice which is “the having and doing what is one’s own.” In other words “a just man is a man in just the right place, doing his best, and giving the full equivalent of what he receives,” (Will Duarnt) and on the societal level it is the effective coordination of these individuals to the end of creating an efficient whole.
10:02.78 – 10:35.86 (33.1s)
60
This is contrasted by the moral views of, say, Jesus and Nietzsche; the former puts emphasis on kindness and charity to the weak while the latter on the power of the strong.
10:35.86 – 10:46.34 (10.5s)
61
Plato believes a moral society is one that achieves harmony of the whole.
10:46.34 – 10:52.06 (5.7s)
62
Something else to consider when investigating the ethics of Plato is how much variation occurs between the different dialogues.
10:52.06 – 10:59.89 (7.8s)
63
Each scholar will come to a different conclusion depending upon which method they subscribe to.
10:59.89 – 11:06.37 (6.5s)
64
You have the Unitarian view which takes the various works of Plato and sees them maintain more or less the same principles from start to finish.
11:06.37 – 11:15.17 (8.8s)
65
Then there is the revisionist view which believes that his work saw some fundamental changes during the later parts of his life.
11:15.17 – 11:22.73 (7.6s)
66
And finally there is the Developmentalist view which has gained traction in recent years; these individuals believe that Plato’s ethical ideals continually evolved throughout his life.
11:22.73 – 11:34.53 (11.8s)
67
Whichever avenue you choose to follow you will find that he, like many other philosophers of his day, followed a “virtue-based eudaemonistic conception of ethics.” By Eudaemonistic I mean an ethic based on happiness and the virtues that contribute to its attainment.
11:34.53 – 11:52.51 (18.0s)
68
In order to fully discover his ethics I will save it for a separate video as it would take much more time to fully investigate its intricacies.
11:52.51 – 12:02.65 (10.1s)
69
The Metaphysics of Plato is most readily demonstrated through his doctrine of ideas, or as some call the theory of forms.
12:04.40 – 12:12.70 (8.3s)
70
In this doctrine Plato sets out to explain the unperceived duality of our universe, or in other words how our universe is separated into that which can be detected through our sense, (The Physical realm), and that which can only be conceived by reason and thought, (The Realm of Forms).
12:12.70 – 12:30.47 (17.8s)
71
With any given object, say a dog, we sense its features, these features are part of the physical realm, but behind these features is the general idea of idea or ideal of a dog, an everlasting and changeless form which exists outside of what can be perceived by our senses.
12:30.55 – 12:50.76 (20.2s)
72
Even if the color, age, or breed of the dog changes the general idea of a dog remains the same.
12:51.16 – 12:59.44 (8.3s)
73
This idea, Plato thought, is more real than what we perceive through our sense experience.
12:59.44 – 13:05.06 (5.6s)
74
We can think of the physical realm as merely a temporary imitation of what lies within the realm of forms.
13:05.05 – 13:12.84 (7.8s)
75
The laws by which a certain thing behaves is also part of this realm of forms, he would often reference the laws of geometry here.
13:12.84 – 13:21.36 (8.5s)
76
It was not without reason that above the door of The Academy he had placed a sign that read “let no man ignorant of Geometry enter here.” Without this eternal realm life would seem to us meaningless, only a bundle of sensations, such as a newborn infant experiences.
13:21.36 – 13:40.00 (18.6s)
77
In The Republic Plato uses the allegory of the cave to illustrate the philosopher seeking to look past his subjective reality in pursuit of the objective truth, if you are interested in learning of this allegory I have created a video on this topic, I will put the link in the description below.
13:40.00 – 13:57.76 (17.8s)
78
If you enjoyed the video and would like to learn more about eastern and western philosophy consider subscribing to the channel, and as always, thank you for talking philosophy with me, until next time.
13:58.28 – 14:09.86 (11.6s)

왜 이 비디오로 말하기 연습을 해야 할까요?

이 비디오는 플라톤이라는 철학자의 철학적 사상과 그의 삶에 대해 이야기합니다. 플라톤은 고대 그리스의 중요한 인물로, 그의 생각은 오늘날까지 많은 학생들에게 영향을 미치고 있습니다. 이 비디오를 통해 여러분은 영어 회화 연습을 할 수 있으며, 플라톤의 철학적 개념을 이해하는 데 도움을 받을 수 있습니다. 그의 사상을 이야기하는 동안, 다양한 표현과 어휘를 익힐 수 있고, 실제 대화 상황에서 이러한 내용을 적용해 볼 수 있습니다. 이러한 배움은 IELTS 스피킹을 준비하는 데도 큰 도움이 될 것입니다.

문맥에서의 문법 및 표현

이 비디오에서는 여러 가지 흥미로운 문법 구조와 표현이 사용됩니다. 다음은 몇 가지 핵심 구조입니다:

  • “It is thought that…”: 이 표현은 믿거나 오해할 수 있는 정보를 전달할 때 사용됩니다. 예를 들어, "사람들이 플라톤이 아테네에서 태어났다고 생각합니다."와 같은 문장을 만들 수 있습니다.
  • “was said to have been…”: 이는 과거의 상황에 대해 언급할 때 자주 쓰이는 구조입니다. "플라톤은 운동선수였다"고 말할 수 있습니다.
  • “If we are to believe…”: 조건문을 사용하여 가정할 때 이 표현을 활용할 수 있습니다. "우리가 플라톤의 저서를 믿는다면…"과 같은 식으로 사용할 수 있습니다.

이러한 표현들은 유튜브 영어 공부 및 영어 쉐도잉을 통해 적극 활용할 수 있습니다.

일반적인 발음 함정

이 비디오에서 발음과 억양에서 주의해야 할 몇 가지 단어가 있습니다. 특히 'philosophy'와 같은 단어는 발음하기 어려울 수 있습니다. 이 단어는 '필로소피'라고 발음하며, 특히 'ph' 발음에 주의해야 합니다. 또 다른 예로 'Socrates'는 '소크라테스'라고 발음하되, 강한 억양을 주의해야 합니다. 이러한 단어들을 올바르게 발음하는 연습은 shadowing site를 통해 더욱 효과적으로 수행할 수 있습니다.

이 영상을 통해 플라톤의 사상을 배우고, 다양한 문법 구조와 표현, 그리고 발음 연습을 통해 여러분의 영어 스피킹 능력을 강화해 보세요!

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.

ShadowingEnglish에서 효과적으로 학습하는 방법

  1. 영상 선택: 자연스럽고 명확한 영어가 사용된 YouTube 영상을 선택하세요. TED Talks, BBC 뉴스, 영화 장면, 팟캐스트, IELTS 모범 답변 영상이 좋습니다. URL을 복사해서 검색창에 붙여넣으세요. 짧은 영상(5분 이내)과 실제로 관심 있는 주제부터 시작하는 것이 동기 유지에 효과적입니다.
  2. 먼저 듣고 내용 이해하기: 처음에는 1배속으로 그냥 듣기만 하세요. 아직 따라 말할 필요는 없습니다. 문장의 의미를 파악하고, 화자가 어떻게 단어를 강조하고, 소리를 연결하고, 쉬어 가는지 주목하세요. 내용을 이해한 후 쉐도잉 연습을 하면 효과가 훨씬 좋아집니다.
  3. 쉐도잉 모드 설정:
    • Wait Mode (대기 모드): +3s 또는 +5s를 선택하면 한 문장이 재생된 후 자동으로 잠시 멈춰서 따라 말할 시간을 줍니다. 직접 컨트롤하고 싶다면 Manual을 선택해서 Next를 눌러 진행하세요.
    • Sub Sync (자막 동기화): YouTube 자막이 오디오와 맞지 않을 수 있습니다. ±100ms로 조정해서 정확한 타이밍에 따라갈 수 있도록 맞추세요.
  4. 소리 내어 쉐도잉하기 (핵심 연습): 이것이 연습의 핵심입니다. 문장이 재생되는 순간——또는 일시정지 중에——크고 자신감 있게 소리 내어 따라 하세요. 단순히 단어를 읽는 것이 아니라, 화자의 리듬, 강세, 음의 높낮이, 연음 방식을 그대로 흉내 내는 것이 중요합니다. 목표는 화자의 '그림자'처럼 들리는 것입니다. Repeat 기능으로 같은 문장을 여러 번 반복해서 자연스럽게 입에 붙을 때까지 연습하세요.
  5. 난이도 높이며 꾸준히 연습: 한 구절이 편해지면 더 도전적인 수준으로 올리세요. 속도를 <code>1.25x</code> 또는 <code>1.5x</code>로 높여 빠른 언어 반사 신경을 훈련하세요. Wait Mode를 <code>Off</code>로 설정해서 연속 쉐도잉을 하는 것이 가장 고급스럽고 효과적인 모드입니다. 매일 15~30분씩 꾸준히 연습하면 몇 주 안에 눈에 띄는 변화를 느낄 수 있습니다.
