Sheffield talk on the Phaedrus
Posted on
..
I thought I would use this blog to announce and discuss history of philosophy events in London (or if anyone else wants to use this website to make similar announcements, go for it). Today my friend and colleague Frisbee gave a talk at the Aristotelian Society on the Phaedrus, arguing that this dialogue by Plato provides what some people find missing in Plato: an account of interpersonal friendship (philia). I'll actually be interviewing her about Plato's erotic dialogues later in the series, probably episode 32 (I plan to do 16 episodes on Plato total, believe it or not). To read her paper go to:
