Episode Description from the Publisher

In this episode, we explore the life and work of Plato, one of history's most influential philosophers. Why is it important to examine Plato not just as a thinker but as a person deeply embedded in the social and political fabric of his time? We’ll delve into his dialogues, the context in which they were written, and what they reveal about his views on democracy, philosophy, and civic life.Grab a copy of Plato: A Civic Life https://uk.bookshop.org/a/14692/9781836392057If you want to get in touch with History with Jackson email: jackson@historywithjackson.co.ukTo support History with Jackson to carry on creating content subscribe to History with Jackson+ on Apple Podcasts or support us on our Patreon - https://patreon.com/HistorywithJackson?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkTo catch up on everything to do with History with Jackson head to www.HistorywithJackson.co.ukFollow us on Facebook at @HistorywithJacksonFollow us on Instagram at @HistorywithJacksonFollow us on X/Twitter at @HistorywJacksonFollow us on TikTok at @HistorywithJackson Hosted on Acast.
