Some readers may be interested in a lecture on the ideas of Justice and the Good in Plato’s Republic dialogue. As I indicated in the lecture, I found it exceedingly challenging to span these immense topics with my explanation but it is my hope that something I said may prove to be of value in kindling further thoughts and insights. The lecture was recorded for the sake of my students in a Critical Thinking course at Alaska Pacific University. I welcome any comments or thoughts on the subject. See also: Plato’s Republic: In Defense of The Poets.

What we can see follows from how we can look. Theoria is a higher vision. As Plotinus says, “We must invoke…a new manner of seeing, a wakefulness that is the birthright of us all, though few put it to use.”
