History
1 answer:
lilavasa [31]3 years ago

Both sophists and philosophers were well trained and highly educated, but the main difference was that a sophist taught others and they got paid for that. It is said that their own wealth was their only goal.

Philosophers, such as Socrates, refused to get paid.

Throughout history, the sophists have had a reputation as professionally amoral, . They would help people to attain any goal,  regardless of what it was. They would take any case, promote any cause, and empower any person, if the money was right.

Philosophers, for the most part, have walked on the side of the angels. They may sometimes have had reputations as prolix and obscure, complex and abstract,  out of touch, but they have, for the most part, seemed to be purer souls in their focus and work.

In other words, the sophists were much more concerned about how than about why. The philosophers have always been more cautious.

How might a renaissance critic of machiavelli have responded to his work?
algol13
<span>Machiavelli was an Italian Renaissance Philosopher and statesman, through his works he often argued that political life could perhaps be excused for performing violent and deceptive actions which would not be a right in private life. He described how neither moral or religious rules alone were sufficient in governing. Because of this Machiavelli was often criticized and misunderstood by critics of the time because of this view he had on the relationship between politics and ethics. He was regarded as opportunistic and manipulative for this reason.</span>
