In the Republic of Plato, which of the following was recommended?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Question restatement: The prompt asks which recommendation appears in Plato's Republic.
Option a: 'Lower classes should be highly educated.' While Plato discusses the education of the guardian class, he does not advocate high-level education for all lower classes; his educational plans are specifically aimed at the ruling and auxiliary classes, not an indiscriminate elevation of the entire lower class. This makes the claim misleading.
Option b: 'Children should be taken from their parents at birth to be educated by the State.' This aligns with the Republic’s radical proposal for communal upbringing of the guardian class, where families are dissolved and children are raised by the state to prevent factional loyalties, ensuring uniform training and merit-based assignment. This is the core element many scholars cite as characteristic of Plato’s blueprint.
Option c: 'Music was not an important subject.' On the contrary, music (and eventually gymnastics) are presented as foundational components of education in the Republic, shaping character and harmony within the soul; claiming it is unimportant contradicts the deliberate curricular emphasis.
Option d: 'People should not be allowed to move from the class they were born into in society.' The Republic outlines a rigid class system with guardians, auxiliaries, and producers, but it does not explicitly propose a universal prohibition on social mobility in the modern sense; it emphasizes the assignment by virtue and merit rather than a simple, unconditional ban on movement. The statement as written oversimplifies or misstates the role of class structure in the text.
In summary, option b is the best-supported claim because it directly captures Plato's controversial proposal about state-controlled upbringing of children to serve the common good, whereas the other options either misstate the educational scope, mischaracterize curricular priorities, or misstate the nature of mobility within his framework.
