Plato, The Meno - Socrates The Stingray - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient philosopher Plato's dialogue, the Meno. It focuses specifically on a metaphor used in the dialogue -- Socrates as a "stingray", saying that he is like an animal that stuns its prey, in this case stunning those who think they possess knowledge, and making them unable to use or demonstrate the knowledge they supposedly possess To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 1500 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Purchase Plato's Meno - https://amzn.to/2MlGrif
