Description
No answer is given in the Lysis to the question, ‘What is Friendship?’ any more than in the Char-mides to the question, ‘What is Temperance?’ There are several resemblances in the two Dia-logues: the same youthfulness and sense of beau-ty pervades both of them; they are alike rich in theof Greek life. The question is again raised of the relation of knowledge to virtue and good, which also recurs in the Laches; and Socrates appears again as the elder friend of the two boys, Lysis and Menexenus. In the Char-mides, as also in the Laches, he is described as middle-aged; in the Lysis he is advanced in years.
