If you want something that looks at the poetry and the Greek, I'm still partial to my advisor's book: Alex Mourelatos, The Route of Parmenides. And Matt Evans' book will be great when it comes out.

I'm especially interested in #GreekPhilosophy but also #philosophyofmind and #metaphysics.
Any others out there?

Plato of Athens (424 or 423 to 347 BCE) was an ancient Greek philosopher whose work is considered so important that he may be called the inventor of philosophy as we understand the term today. #History #Plato #GreekPhilosophy #HistoryFacts https://www.worldhistory.org/article/2241/life-of-plato-of-athens/

It is not immovable. It is not ancient. It is here among us in the present now and deserves to be celebrated and heard.
We should not be afraid to argue with our ancestors. If we go around acting as if they filled our cups, then we will not learn and grow as people.
We are not frozen in time. We are the here and now. We are in the ever present and the endless potential future.
