Socrates begins to censor Homer’s works for depicting the gods as deceptive and for inspiring amoral attitudes into the children. My mother was quite like Socrates when she banned me from watching Spongebob in my youth. (p.s: found a new copy of the Republic to read) > p.149

Got the book wet in the resort pool in Punta Cana. Half of the pages I've read so far are either crunchy or separating form the binding agent on the spine. Plato uses strawman arguments far too often but is nonetheless a charming orator. (lvi + 53)

The preliminary sections were pretty good for contemporaneous context and for outlining Plato’s arguments and positions found throughout the text. Enjoying the dialogue format. Easy & entertaining to read through so far.
