Socrates tests Meno's ability to remember or "recollect" previous arguments in the conversation, but Meno is blissfully unaware of all the outrageous distortions Socrates perpetrates. Then it was prudence (phronesis) which was the guiding principle leading to acts being performed correctly and well by an individual, Now Socrates suggests that they were correct in thinking that good men could lead us correctly and well, but were incorrect in agreeing that someone leading correctly and well needed to be prudent (phronimos).
Here I read through Platonic dialogues, translating and commenting on the Greek text as I go.
