Phaenarete
Phaenarete (Greek Φαιναρέτη), wife of Sophroniscus, was the mother of the Greek philosopher Socrates and his half-brother, Patrocles. (Since Sophroniscus had died before 424 BC, he was probably Phaenarete's first husband, while Chaeredemus, father of Patrocles, was her second.)〔p. 235, Debra Nails, ''The People of Plato'', Hackett, 2002.〕 The name Phaenarete means "She who brings virtue to light".〔Plato. ''Theaetetus.'' Indianapolis, Indiana: Hackett Publishing Company, Inc., 1992. Print. ISBN 0-87220-158-9〕 And it is, according to A.E. Taylor, "suggestive of good family connexions", based on its appearance in the genealogy of the immortal Amphitheus in Aristophanes' ''Acharnians''.〔p. 102, "Plato's Biography of Socrates", ''Proceedings of the British Academy'' vol. 8 (1917).〕 Very little is known of the life of Phaenarete. In Plato's ''Theaetetus'', Socrates compares his own work as a philosopher with hers as a ''maia'' (midwife).〔''Theaetetus'' 149a.〕 ==References==
