Episode notes
In this episode, we explore the life and work of Plato, one of history's most influential philosophers. Why is it important to examine Plato not just as a thinker but as a person deeply embedded in the social and political fabric of his time? We’ll delve into his dialogues, the context in which they were written, and what they reveal about his views on democracy, philosophy, and civic life.
