Sobre IBD

This study reconsiders Plato’s “Socratic” dialogues—Charmides, Laches, Lysis, Euthydemus, Gorgias, and Meno—as parts of an integrated curriculum. By privileging reading order over order of composition, a Platonic pedagogy teaching that the Idea of the Good is a greater object of philosophical concern than what benefits the self is spotlighted.

  • Guardians on Trial
    William H F Altman / William H. F. Altman / William HFAltman / xxWilliam H. F. Altmanxx
