Take classes with me - https://reasonio.teachable.com/ In this lecture from my Spring 2013 Introduction to Philosophy class at Marist College, we continue our study of Plato's classic dialogue, the Meno. We work our way into the Platonic "doctrine of recollection", which views learning as a process of being reminded of what one already has learned and thus in some way knows. We also examine the conversation between Socrates, Meno, and Anytus (one of his later accusers), focused on the questions whether virtue can be taught, and whether any of the political leaders actually knew what virtue was and successfully taught it. We finish by addressing the distinction between knowledge and right opinion IIf you'd like to support my work producing videos like this, become a Patreon supporter!
