Philosophy Discussion Group: Euthyphro

In July, the Philosophy Discussion Group continues our project of studying the history of philosophy, from the beginning.  We are currently reading the works of Plato, following the order of the dialogues as they are presented in John Cooper's compendium, The Complete Plato.

On July 31, we will discuss Plato's Euthyphro, a dialogue in which Socrates exhorts Euthyphro to define "piety".
