Dear Friends,
Happy the Lantern festival!
We will have our first meeting in the Year of the Horse. The date of the next
meeting of Timaeus reading group will be on 21 Feb 2014, Friday morning, at
the library of Philosophy Department, Soochow University (東吳大學外雙溪校區, 第
二教研大樓8樓), from 10.00 to 12.00.
Now we are going to continue our reading from Plato's Timaeus 44d, where the
divine spherical movement would be placed into the sphere-shaped body, i.e.
the head, which would become the divine part of our body. It is the crucial
passage on the relation between soul and body in Plato. Usually, every time,
we would not go beyond than five Stephanus pages.
Anyone who feels interested, please come. Greek is a delight but not necessary
if you are worrying about it. Everyone is welcome.
all the best
Hua-kuei
