Audio recording of a lecture given by Anne-Marie Schultz on December 13, 2024 as part of the Dean's Lecture & Concert Series. The Dean's Office has provided this description of the event: “I will examine portions of two Platonic dialogues, the Theaetetus and the Phaedo. I argue that they deal, either explicitly or implicitly, with the social and political complexities of preserving Socratic philosophical legacy. To be sure, each of these dialogues is more often associated with other important philosophical themes. The Theaetetus explores various definitions of knowledge and challenges to them. The Phaedo addresses arguments for the immortality of the soul and challenges to it. At the same time, these dialogues also explore philosophical legacy. By examining passages from these dialogues, we can gain insight into the ways that Plato aimed to create philosophical community in ways that would nurture philosophers as they carry the legacy of Socratic philosophical practice into the future. I end by asking what we can learn from the historical back drop in which Plato wrote these dialogues that may help us cultivate philosophical practices in our various communities in such a way that might safeguard the intellectual freedom of America’s current contemporary landscape.”
