Discussion
The Philosopher interviewed by young Socrates was _____.
Answer: C
In Plato's dialogue Parmenides, the young Socrates meets and is questioned by the philosopher Parmenides, with Zeno also present, and his theory of Forms is examined. So the philosopher who interviewed young Socrates was Parmenides. Heraclitus did not appear in the dialogue, and Plato is the author, not a speaker. Zeno was present but is not the one who questions Socrates at length. The answer is Parmenides. The dialogue is one of Plato's later dialogues, in which the elderly Parmenides and Zeno visit Athens and a very young Socrates puts forward the theory of Forms for examination.
