Excellent! Not long ago, I undertook Plato‘s republic for the first time. I immediately tracked some of the same points you’re making here. Well done keep it up.

The insightful comparison of our contemporary cultural shifts to the unraveling of Athens’ ethical order in the fifth century BC is both compelling and thought-provoking. Drawing parallels between Plato, Thucydides, and modern debates like marriage or patriotism offers a fresh lens to reflect on our times. I’m eager to see how these connections will further unfold in future posts! Thank you for making such complex ideas accessible and relevant.
