The Clouds, by Aristophanes

Strepsiades, a farmer fallen into serious debt due to his son’s debaucheries, begs Socrates to teach him the art of rhetoric so that he can present unfairness as fairness, and escape once and for all from his creditors and judges.

The Clouds, a shining comedy focusing on the unjust and relentless satire against Socrates, present the philosopher as head of the sophists and teacher of rhetoric.
