Description

Plato's dialogues have been of persistent interest to readers. Why? Some are drawn by the enigmatic character of Socrates, usually on center stage. Some are attracted or puzzled by the philosophical positions that Plato explores through the dialogues. Some are inspired by the conception of philosophical practice that they represent. In this course we will read, discuss, and write about several of Plato's dialogues with these topics in mind.
