On Virtue

On Virtue (Greek: Περὶ Ἀρετῆς; Latin: De Virtute^[1]) is a Socratic dialogue attributed to Plato, but which is considered spurious. In the short dialogue, Socrates discusses with a friend questions about whether virtue can be taught.^[2] To answer this question, the author of the dialogue does little more than copy out a few passages from the Meno almost word for word.^[3]
