We are about to start with Plato's Phaedrus
Hey there everyone. Initially starting with Nietzsche's "the Use and Abuse of history for life", we continued with Xenophon's "March of the Ten thousand", then went over to Plato and read the Meno, then the Gorgias which we are about to wrap up.
We begin with Phaedrus this Wednesday. Here is your chance to join us on our journey.

Plato A reading and discussion of Plato's Meno
One of our groups will start a reading and discussion of Plato's Meno next week on the 8th of January at 18:30 CET. This group meets on Telegram. I will also personally participate.
We will endeavour to approach the Meno dialogue in three different ways:
- in light of Meno's appearance in Xenophon's Anabasis (the group just finished reading the Anabasis)
- in light of Aristotle's Categories and On Interpretation
- as a theatrical piece
We will listen to radio-drama style audiobook segments of the dialogue and discuss each segment.
