The Importance of Socrates in Plato's Life
Bess: I thought one of the most valuable things, and we'll get to this maybe more in depth later, those valuable things that I got at this is that this isn't really just a study of the Republic, but it's got in way a kind of nutshell reading of most of Plato specifically. And Xenophon,. according to Bess, yeah.
