Socrates: The Man and His World

In this lecture we investigate the life of Socrates. In particular, we look at two monumental events in his life: his encounter with the oracle at Delphi which pronounced him to be the wisest of all men, and his trial and subsequent execution. =================================================== Support us on Patreon: http://patreon.com/academyofideas Recommended Readings: Socrates A Life Examined - Luis Navia - http://amzn.to/1TKy3HZ (affiliate link) For more videos, video transcripts, and more, visit: http://academyofideas.com/ =================================================== ---​ Learn more about your ad choices.
