Hugh Benson on Socrates
Posted on
..
Went today to a really interesting talk by Hugh Benson, who is visiting King's for a few months as a Leverhulme visiting research professor. He was arguing that Socrates (as presented in Plato's elenctic dialogues) encourages us to seek wisdom by learning from those who already know -- this is more controversial than it might sound! Anyway it was great. If you're in the London area, he will also be giving two further talks, next Monday and the Monday after, feel free to get in touch to find out more details.
