And we’re back! We are now nearing the end of the Republic so our conversations continue to go over the finer details of Plato’s philosophy. In this episode we cover what kind of education is necessary to make a philosopher. How does the study of math, music, and astronomy allow us to know the forms. And why is the practice of dialectic so important to philosophy for Plato. The conversation eventually turned into a hard look into the nature of education today versus the classical definition. Please enjoy!
