Education in Political Platonism

It’s this topic, education, that I’ve been asked to talk to you about. I’m especially pleased by the opportunity to do so because it gives me the chance to speak well of my teachers and the great teachers of mankind. We can’t always study with them in their classrooms; they are often long since deceased. But we can read, reread, discuss, and reflect on them through books, either because, like Plato, they wrote, or because, like Socrates, they were written about.
