The document discusses Plato's dialogue Meno from 402 BCE between Socrates and Meno where they debate the nature of human virtue. A key theme is anamnesis, the idea that the soul is eternal and through recollecting can learn and know everything. Socrates engages Meno in a "scale-model elenchus" to discuss virtue and their debate ultimately reaches the classic state of Socratic aporia without a clear conclusion.
