Reading and revise translation

2024-2025

U6 Greek Prose Lit 2024/25

Date Due

Sept. 18, 2024

Additional Info
Please read a) the introductory material in the Plato Booklet; focussing on the glossary of technical terms and the sections describing the 3 main conversations in Book. Also have a look at just the first page of 'The main argument of The Republic' in 'Enrichment/ Grube Republic Introduction' b) the first English prescription (331c-336a).  
None of these are very long, but aim to spend enough time on them so that you come into next lesson feeling that you have a sense of where our prescription comes in the development/argument of Book 1.   

Sorry for not mentioning this in this lesson, but I think it would be a good idea to revise the text that we translated today; It is only a few lines, but if we don't do it now then the next homework will be rather large. There will be a translation test next time.
