Plato in the spring, first meeting


We looked at the movement of the characters and the different conversations, and asked, What happens when you talk to Socrates? There seems to be a tension between wanting and not wanting to talk, wanting to stay and go. Then on Socrates' question as to justice, What is it? we wondered about how a definition might be dramatized in conversation and a consideration of particulars rather than explicitly pinned down in a single general formulation...and we ate cake, with fizzy fruity drinks! Steph and Paul and I were there--feel free to join!
