See all- Astoria Philosophy Book Club Meet & Greet + Pythagoras by Plato Discussion31st Ave Open Street, Queens County, NY
Hi all interested in joining the Astoria Philosophy Book Club! I've decided to get the ball rolling with a Meet & Greet at the 31st Ave Open Street this upcoming Sunday.
I'm thinking we'll start officially reading as a group with Plato's Republic sometime this month. Until then, I'm attaching an optional reading for those able to make it to the Open Street on Sunday, Socrate's dialogue with Protagoras about virtue.
https://web.tresorit.com/l/uw1j9#Dpny2buG2go6Q3PEQeMOtgThis should give those who are interested a good preview of Plato's writing style if they are unfamiliar and also allow us the chance to form a discussion style for meetings ahead :)
Look forward to meeting and discussing Plato with all of you on Sunday!
