Spuria:
Plato is known to have written many letters and dialogues during his lifetime. All in all, the total number of letters and epigrams Plato wrote amounted to 13 and 18 respectively. These works are together called the spuria and the dubia. The collection of the Platonic spuria was done when the other important Platonic texts were found. But they were immediately declared to be frauds in every aspect including their antiquity.
Aristotle was the one who mentored Alexander the Great. He was Plato’s student and a ancient Greek philosopher. Just like Socrates and Plato, Aristotle’s philosophies and ideas have influenced the western philosophy extensively. He has made an enormous contribution in the fields of physics, poetry, music, theater, politics, metaphysics and many more thorough his various writings
Famous Latin prose writer, Apuleius states that Speusippus admired Plato’s wit and modesty to a great extent. He says that Plato’s youth was infused with love for a lot of hard work and a fondness for studies. Diogenes notifies us that it was Plato himself, who later characterized the facility of learning, human memory, human sagacity, the speed of apprehension, the youthful human spirit and the magnificent soul as gifts of nature to mankind.
