SUMMARY:Staging Political Virtue: Plato’s Republic and the Drama of Desire
DESCRIPTION:November 20\, 2025. 4:30PM – 06:00PM CGIS South\, 1730 Cambridge St. S020 \nSpeaker: Alessandro Carrera\, University of Houston \nDiscussant: Martin Puchner\, Harvard University\nPlato’s Republic has shaped how we think about politics\, ethics\, and justice for more than two millennia. In On Political Virtue: Plato’s Republic and the Politics of Desire\, the Italian philosopher Carlo Sini reinterprets this foundational dialogue in a strikingly original way. Rather than treating it as a straightforward defense of reason or ideal governance\, Sini reads Plato’s work as a theatrical piece. Alessandro Carrera\, the book’s editor and translator\, will guide us through Sini’s provocative re-reading of Plato. \nhttps://mahindrahumanities.harvard.edu/event/staging-political-virtue-platos-republic-and-drama-desire
