Sophistry and sophisticated
post Girgenti In my love (click to read) the story monologue starring Gianfranco Jannuzzo at Teatro Manzoni di Monza . In it, among the many skits created by the plaintiff, there is one that has as its subject the Sicilian-greek philosophers of antiquity. Among those philosophers, thanks to a commenter that I mentioned, stood the figure of the philosopher Gorgias by Leontini , the probable loquacity and art in the conversation. In fact, he is remembered for being one of the four ancient philosophers as part of the philosophical movement known as the sophists.
Etymologically, according to a report in the online encyclopedia Wikipedia ,
"Formerly, the term sophistés (sage) was synonymous with sophos (wise) and referred to a man expert in technical details and features wide culture. From the fifth century, however, those intellectuals who were called sophists of wisdom and the teaching profession for a fee: this fact that the mentality of the time appeared to be "scandalous", led to negatively judge this current . The Sophists were thus branded as false scholars interested in the success and money, rather than the truth. Currently, the term also retains the current language in a negative character: with "sophistry" are misleading speeches and rhetoric based on the sheer force of argument.
...". According to the latter part of the etymology of the word sophistry, indicating speeches misleading and based on the simple rhetorical force of the arguments , come to think its likely that arguments by the courts the Court of Appeal of Milan, who rejected the appeal of the Lombard delegates calling for the release of the "List of Lombardy" by Roberto Formigoni voted on March 28, are the very nature of sophistry. Identical goes for what happened to the list of Polverini, in that of Rome.
