"If anyone thinks that he knows nothing, he cannot be sure that he knows this, when he confesses that he knows nothing at all. I shall avoid disputing with such a trifler, who perverts all things, and like a tumbler with his head prone to the earth, can go no otherwise than backwards." (Lucretius 4:469)
REMINDER: SUNDAY WEEKLY ZOOM - March 22, 2026 -12:30 PM EDT - Ancient text study and discussion: De Rerum Natura - - Level 03 members and above (and Level 02 by Admin. approval) - read more info on it here.
FYI and FWIW, we are looking at dealing with both PD17 and PD18 this week because 17 references justice but in a very simple way. Probably we would do best to defer a detailed consideration of "justice" until we get to the final ten PDs, so we will keep the discussion of this one limited for the time being.
On the other hand, PD18 is very challenging, and I suspect we can easily devote most of the session to it. We could probably devote ten sessions to it and still not be finished, but one session can serve as a start.
And of course we'll have whatever other general discussion is on the minds of the attendees.
