Glad you enjoyed it. It'll be a while, as you work through the text, before you get to this stuff in book 4

I would love to have that condition of judgment. I am going to have to read the Republic. I thoroughly enjoyed the article. Thank you for sharing Dr. Sadler.

The Symposium and the Republic are two entirely different works by Plato
