Summary/Abstract: Protagoras is one of the most intriguing figures in the history of human thought. Complex fate of ancient literature meant that we only know bits and pieces of his writings, mostly in the form of the famous adages and incipits. However, even these fragments, but most of all the passages that Plato and Aristotle devote to Protagoras, call into existence an image of thinker who played a prominent role in the history of areas such as philosophy (ontology and epistemology), pedagogy (theory of virtue and theory of education), linguistics, mathematics, and philosophy of the state and law
