Plato argued against the use of rhetoric in philosophy, because it could convince people of falsehoods by psychological manipulation.
How ironic, then, that he himself practiced philosophical rhetoric! Aristotle's claim that rhetoric is necessary to explain truth is far more honest.
I disagree. Plato's dialogues are logical, measured attempts to expound Socratic arguments.
"Sophist" and "Phaedrus" are full of emotive, overly complicated turns of phrase, intended to convince the reader of Plato's own irrational prejudices.
