Research
Members of the research group habitually publish the results of the seminar-workshop-conference processes in respected, peer reviewed channels. Part of this is done individually, but the group also has a solid track record for succeeding with collaborative efforts, such as Plato鈥檚 Protagoras: Essays on the Confrontation of Philosophy and Sophistry (Springer 2017), Readings of Plato鈥檚 Apology of Socrates (Lexington Books 2018), Philosophy as Drama: Plato鈥檚 Thinking through Dialogue (Bloomsbury 2019), and Democracy and Its Rivals: Plato鈥檚 Statesman and Laws (special issue of Polis, 2020).
Among our many international collaborators in recent years are Arlene Saxonhouse, Catherine Rowett, Charlotta Weigelt, Claudia Baracchi, Cynthia Freeland, Daniel V谩zquez, Drew Hyland, Elena Irrera, Ellisif Wasmuth, Emanuela Bianchi, Jacob Howland, John Sallis, Laura Rabinowitz, Marina McCoy, Melissa Lane, Miira Tuominen, Paul Ludwig, Paul Woodruff, Ryan Balot, and Thomas Kjeller Johansen.
As part of our outreach, we are giving a at Bergen Public Library on thinkers and themes from ancient philosophy.
