Dear Classical Wisdom Reader,
I thought I’d start today with a quote from Homer…no, not that Homer.
In a very early appearance, Homer Simpson once quipped, “What is mind? No matter. What is matter? Nevermind!”
It seems that in the early days, Homer was a little more philosophically minded…
It’s a fitting quote, as this week we had a look at how the ancient philosophers understood the nature of ‘mind’, or nous, which you can check out just below.
Discover what Plato and others thought about, well, thought itself!
And if you’re interested in the other Homer, the ancient Greek poet of the Iliad and the Odyssey, he is one of the many, many ancient figures featured in The Essential Classics, our stunning hardback anthology of the greatest writers and philosophers from ancient Greece and Rome.
Featuring everyone from Homer, Plato, and Sophocles, to Virgil, Marcus Aurelius and more, it really is the best of the best.
It’s sure to make an excellent Christmas gift for the lover of wisdom in your life.
It’s available at our recently launched online shop. Check it out HERE!
And for the kids, there’s also our children’s book Sappho: The Lost Poetess by our own Anya Leonard. It’s sure to spark an interest in poetry, archaeology, and all things ancient!
The young ones will also enjoy our recent interview with Professor Mark Usher over at Classical Wisdom Kids, where he takes questions from the kids of the Marcus Aurelius Fanclub on animals in the ancient world. You can watch that HERE!
See it all just below, alongside the rest of the week’s resources…
