Night School: The Wisdom of Nothing

"I do nothing but go about persuading you all, old and young alike, not to take thought for your persons or your properties, but and chiefly to care about the greatest improvement of the soul" said Socrates in Plato's account of the Greek philosopher's trial, Apology. We explore the arguments of Socrates in his trial and the question of wisdom, death and the defense for thought. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
