The New Agora

By: The New Agora
  • Summary

  • Help us create The New Agora, in Edinburgh, the Athens of the North. The Agora was a site at which the Ancient Greeks gathered to discuss and debate all matters of life and exchange ideas. Edinburgh was given the title "Athens of the North" and the successor to Athens. However, we believe there is more to be done for Edinburgh to truly claim that title. With this project, we hope to realise the title of "Athens of the North" by encouraging a sense of community and serving as a platform for debate, discussion, and the exploration of ideas with the vast array of people in Edinburgh and beyond.

  • Episode #19 Phaedo and the Death of Socrates with William Hamilton
    Feb 10 2023

    In this episode, we evaluate Socrates' proof of the immortality of the soul and the implications it has on our own conceptions of life after death. While doing so, we also dive into a discussion of how we come to attain knowledge of things.
