AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Collection of Pens Dedicated to Socrates
Maita is proud to present an exclusive collection of pens inspired by great philosophers, particularly Socrates, a fundamental figure of Western philosophy and the father of critical thinking. This series, limited to only 100 pieces, celebrates his dialogic approach, his maieutic method, and his commitment to truth.
Made in precious Italian Bordeaux-spotted resin and silver, the pen's design features a clip that reproduces one of the universal symbols of philosophy. The band on the cap – in silver – is engraved with Socrates’ profile on the front and the motto: "È sapiente solo chi sa di non sapere, non chi s'illude di sapere e ignora così perfino la sua stessa ignoranza" on the back.
At the top of the cap is set a coin depicting an owl, a symbol of philosophy and wisdom, considered such since Hegel in the nineteenth century.
This collection is not only a tribute to Socrates, but also a recognition of his legacy in philosophical thought. Each pen is a perfect balance of elegance and meaning, ideal for those who wish to honor the pursuit of truth and the value of dialogue in daily life.
