The Athenian Golden Age: Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle
di caio · 45 iscritti · ★ 4,6 (11)
A comprehensive journey through the greatest flowering of philosophical thought in human history. Beginning with the Pre-Socratic thinkers who first asked 'What is the world made of?', this course traces the intellectual revolution that culminated in Athens during the fifth and fourth centuries BCE. You will study the radical questioning of Socrates, the soaring metaphysics of Plato, and the encyclopedic system-building of Aristotle — three thinkers whose ideas continue to shape science, ethics, politics, and art to this day. No prior philosophical background is required.
