Disagreement

The two men sat chatting.

Their meeting was both surprising and unusual. The room that they occupied was not known by either. As to the time they met, that too was quite irrelevant. The Greek, as a philosopher, was regarded as a foundational thinker, with his bringing about the concept of a theory of forms, while the Italian, regarded as a political philosopher was undoubtedly best known for his political treatise. The Greek was saying that the others notion that it is far more effective to rely on the attributes of virtue and prudence rather than allowing fortune to take its own course, to be quite thought provoking. The Italian, on the other hand, found the idea of there being three parts to the soul, with each one having its own object of desire, most interesting.

At first their conversation was quite amicable, with both conceding that the other had made huge advances in their own fields of study. However, this didn’t last…

Within only a few short minutes the tone of their discussion became positively acrimonious.

It should be noted that many modern-day scholars, should they be asked for an opinion, would say that they considered that the two men had philosophical views that were diametrically opposed.

It seems that Plato and Machiavelli would never really have hit it off!
