Protagoras (c. 490 – c. 420 BCE) was a Greek philosopher and sophist who was credited by Plato with inventing the role of the professional sophist.
Biography
An acquaintance of the Athenian statesman Perikles, Protagoras was invited to a symposium held at his residence in Athens. There, he participated in a debate with the playwright Hermippos, who urged him to drink more. Protagoras and Hermippos were later joined by the misthios Kassandra, who provided her thoughts about Kleon.[1] A while later, Protagoras was one of the guests to greet Aspasia, Perikles' partner, upon her arrival.[1]
During the Plague of Athens in 429 BCE, Protagoras was visited Perikles' residence again alongside his other associates.[2]
