Socrates’ Questions: A Focus for Nursing

Sandra Schmidt Bunkers, RN; PhD; FAAN

Associate Professor of Nursing, Marquette University, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, tsbunkers{at}sio.midco.net

This column focuses on the philosophical dialogue originated by Socrates. Six questions that Socrates would ask the ancient Greeks are explored in discussing a book written by Phillips entitled Six Questions of Socrates. These questions were: What is virtue? What is moderation? What is justice? What is good? What is courage? What is piety? A human becoming perspective is used as a lens to view the discussion on these questions and the question is posed, "What would it be like to frame discussions on health and quality of life around Socrates’ questions?" Parse’s teaching-learning processes are presented as a means of creating an environment where dialogue on these questions can occur.

Key Words: elenchus • dialogue • Parse • Socrates • teaching-learning
