Why Plato Matters Now
Pluartis Symposium 2026: Philosophy Arena
Keynote: Why Plato Matters Now

In this keynote based on her recent book, Professor Angie Hobbs explores how the ancient Greek philosopher Plato can help with all these urgent questions and many more – love and friendship; heroism and
celebrity; art and censorship.
