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 the great philosophers, and in particular by Socrates, a foundational figure in Western philosophy and the father of critical thinking. This series, limited to just 100 pieces, celebrates his dialogic approach, his Socratic method, and his commitment to truth.
Made from precious speckled burgundy Italian resin and silver, the pen’s design is distinguished by a clip that reproduces one of philosophy’s universal symbols. The silver ring on the cap is engraved with Socrates’ profile on the front and the motto: “Only he is wise who knows that he does not know, not he who deludes himself into thinking he knows and is thus unaware even of his own ignorance” on the back.
Set into the top of the cap is a small coin depicting an owl, a symbol of philosophy and wisdom, regarded as such as far back as the nineteenth century by Hegel.
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 everyday life.
