I see your point but I still find reading it tedious as it applies to the society that it is responding to and only has a loose connection to modern issues in the form of general patterns of human behaviour. I think the effect would be more pronounced if the socratic method was applied to modern issues but I am not aware of anyone who does so, but if they existed then they surely would be heroic. Sometimes I think of doing it myself when I hear terms such as alienation or general racialist sentiments but then I think it may not be so wise to cast my pearls before swine.
