Discussion topics include: Does Socrates really believe what he says about a daimonion as some kind of an inner voice that communicates with him? How is the “theorizing” of Socrates as he engages in dialogue with his followers in the Phaedo relevant to the theōriā or sacred voyage of the Athenian ship of state from Athens to Delos and back?
Recorded in Fall 2016 during v6 of of the MOOC, The Ancient Greek Hero in 24 Hours, focusing on Hours 22 and 23.
