Socrates was born in Athens, Greece. He
married Xanthippe, who was an ill-tempered, hard to live with
woman. It is believed that he had more than two children.
Socrates taught in streets, the market
place, and in gyms. He often questioned his listeners and showed
them how inadequate their answers were. Many people disliked him
because of his unorthodox teachings and disregard for public
opinion.
