Nice to see someone else who has read her ancient philosophy. :-) I'm sitting in a Panera right now writing up my lesson plan for 2 weeks from now on the overlap between Plato and Augustine.
Well, different time frames but definitely both rooted in Socrates. I'm guilty of being a bit like Augustine in my past and working on trying to walk it like I talk it. I have to go back to school and finish. I had great philosophy and ethics teachers is all. I am also trying to be more stoic. Happy planning. Inspire them and I hope they remember you fondly as I do for those I've been lucky enough to learn from.
Jessica, I know this thread is old, but I wanted to tell you about a book I just finished called A Light From the East. I wrote a review on my own substack if you're interested. It delves deeply into how Eastern and Western Christians integrated Plato and Aristotle so differently. Based on your comment here, I thought you would like it.
Covid put everyone in a Platos cave of big techs making.
