Just stop altogether. Everything afterwards is crap.

>> No.13079283

I asume you read the Apology.

Next is the Symposium. Then take alittle break, read some other stuff.

Plato's Parmenides and Theaetetus. That's the final say in philosophy (both ontology and epistemology).

I hope you didn’t read the Penguin edition. That’s a big yikes.

I picked up the penguin edition yesterday, whats wrong with it?

Laws and then plotinus. Forget Aristotle unless you speak ancient Greek. The terms he uses are lost. Malaka for instance. He was referring to cumbrains.

????
What are you talking about? Aristotle literally creates logic in the Organon-- way more important than Plotinus's fairy tales

Just read Epicurus’ collected writings and stop reading materialist interpretations of him?

I mean, like the other Greeks, he believed the Gods created the world :3

These are acceptable.

Read through Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, and Phaedo; then do Symposium, Parmendies, Theatetus; then whatever tickles you (I really like Ion, Hippias Lesser, and Gorgias).

Follow up with Aristotle (Ethics (N and E), Politics, Poetics, Metaphysics).

Also, if you haven't done any Homer, read both Illiad and Odyssey.

(Secretly, it's because I have not read them).

It works better with TSZ and big N but it works for Plato too. Read everything Plato wrote but read the Republic again between each and every one of them. Then finish by closing the cycle with it and reading commentaries.

>> No.13081976

sextus empiricus if you're feeling analytical
epicurus and lucretius if you're after some 'life lessons' philosophy

>> No.13082270

fuck you all, I love autistic thucydides BRASIDAS A FUCK
seriously though the failed amphibious attack on pylos is a metaphor for tradition and stuff
