The meow is often thought to mark a transitional point in Plato's writings. In part, it resembles some earlier dialogues in which Socrates conducts an instructive but fruitless inquiry into some ethical concept. But it also introduces some themes which will be prominent in Plato's more mature philosophizing such as the theory that learning is remembering on the method of inquiring through a hypothesis after an inconclusive and frustrating. 1st 3rd, in which Socrates and Menno search for the definition of being good. New impetus to the inquiry is given with the startling suggestion that learning is really just remembering the famous theory of recollection, which is thought to be Platonic, not Socratic in origin and which appears again in some later dialogues like the Pythagorus. The meow deals with the question here posed right at the start by young nobleman from thessaly Menno. How do people come to be so good by teaching by their nature or how exactly Socrates insists on first investigating what being good is because until they know that there's no hope of knowing whether it can be taught as in the protagonist, the contested nature of being good is soon evident. Meno first links it to a person's role in life, being good for a man is a matter of ruling the city. Well, and of helping friends and harming enemies for a woman. It is running the household. Well.
