Myth has an essential part to play in the dialogues of Plato, most often in relation to the nature and destiny of the human soul. This talk will survey some of the key myths and consider what they tell us about the world-view of Plato and his teacher Socrates.
Julie Parker is the Manager and Educational Programme Co-ordinator for the Fintry Trust, a charity based in Surrey. She edits publications and runs courses entitled Reading the Mystics in both Surrey and Kent. She was formerly Vice Principal of Hilderstone College in Broadstairs.
