Dear Classical Wisdom Reader,

What a week!

The panel discussion from our Marcus Aurelius event ‘Does Marcus Matter?’ is now available to watch on our YouTube channel.

Thanks again to everyone who joined us and took part!

We looked at the life and legacy of the celebrated Stoic philosopher and Roman Emperor, and asked if his actions lived up to his philosophy...

It was a fantastic discussion, and you can watch it HERE.

Similarly, this week we’ve also been looking at the nexus point of philosophy and politics in Plato’s Republic.

Would Plato’s ideal state governed by philosopher kings have been a tyranny or a harmonious, well-functioning paradise?

Scroll down to check out our article on it.

And if you’re interested in learning more about ancient political systems, we also have an exclusive, Members only article looking at the unreachable nature of utopia, and its depiction in the works of the comic playwright Aristophanes.

It turns out, comedy has always been a pathway towards deeper truths… and a surprisingly reliable source for history.

Members can also check out our e-book of Aristophanes’ racy comedy Lysistrata, plus our e-book anthology of Roman Comedy.

You can discover it all, plus the rest of the week’s resources, just below.
