About this listen

The presumption in the academic community is that we're developing knowledge. But all the best we can do is to develop well founded beliefs according to Plato and for the reasons that I've just argued for. Plato believed that learning, properly conducted, was a way of recalling what is already known by a person. So those who attended Plato's Academy were hoping to recall the forms in the ethereal world and therefore have knowledge. So in Plato's Academy, they weren't strictly scholastic. They were trying to recall, because that's the only way we can know.
