Virtue is central to living a good life. In this session of Young Philosophers, we will explore the classical Greek notion of virtue as presented in Plato’s dialogue Meno. We will also compare this notion of virtue with the Hebrew notion of wisdom as presented in the Bible.
Young Philosophers is an online discussion for high-school-aged students. Join us for “What Is Virtue?” on Monday, February 22, 2027, from 6-7 p.m. PST. The discussion will be led by Gutenberg tutor Eliot Grasso.
