Registration is now open for Symposium Platonicum XIII: Plato’s Sophist, in Athens, GA, USA (Jul. 18-22, 2022)

The International Plato Society organizes a symposium on a single Platonic dialogue every three years. We are pleased to announce the XIII Symposium Platonicum: Plato’s Sophist. The Symposium will take place July 18–22, 2022, at the University of Georgia in Athens, Georgia, USA.
