We aim to explore their ideas in an accessible manner, without dumbing them down. No topic is off limits: the theology of Saint Augustine, Lenin's revolutionary theory, Marx's critique of capitalism, Platonic discussions on love, or Nietzsche's metaphysical musings.

The Nicomachean Ethics by Aristotle

Some call him "The First Teacher", others simply refer to him as "The Philosopher" - but you probably know him as Aristotle. If all philosophy is a footnote to Plato, then Aristotle is footnote number one. Join us as we discuss the most influential work of moral philosophy in the whole world, The Nicomachean Ethics.

The mentioned essay by Quentin Skinner is called "Meaning and Understanding in the History of Ideas".
