Abstract
The sophistic enlightenment, as it has been called, produced numerous intellectual luminaries, yet behind the "singular turning point and vortex" of world history, it always threatens to recede into the homogeneous blur of "pre-Socratic" thought, taking with it an apprehension of the distinctive features of the Socratic revolution. At stake in clarifying the distinction between Protagoras and Socrates is the rational soundness of the Socratic way of life and the very possibility of its self-justification before the tribunal of the most exacting standards of reason.
