The Platonic virtue and the sophists

According to Plato (427-347 BC), the virtue can be exercised, but is really innate and as education that the rhetoric or the so-called "sophists" try to give with several arguments little he can do, and to prove this argument, the Athenian philosopher describes a fantasy of dialogue between the sophist Protagoras of Abdera (which claims to be paid for reciting empty mythologies), and Socrates. The setting is home of the wealthy patron Callias who loves the rhetoric for which he spent much of his wealth and Socrates to speak of the teachable of the virtue with Protagoras host of Callias went with a friend at this great house decorated of arcades, but the caretaker bored of seeing crowds of rhetoricians who recite in the house slams the door on him mistaking for a sophist. Having managed to gain entry, Socrates demonstrates with the dialectic that the idea of virtue is innate and than not teachable.
