David Konstan (Paris IAS fellow) will be discussant within the framework of the workshop "Emotions in Plato / Les émotions chez Platon", organized by Laura Candiotto (University of Edinburgh, Eidyn Center) and Olivier Renaut (Paris-Nanterre University, IREPH).
About the workshop
Emotions have become an important topic of research in Classics, joining historical, anthropological, literary, and philosophical approaches. Specific works on emotions within the ancient philosophical corpus are however unevenly distributed, and studies on the nature and functions of emotions in Plato are still only few. A joint workshop led by Laura Candiotto (University of Edinburgh, Eidyn Centre) and Olivier Renaut (Paris-Nanterre University, IREPH) is organized with the aim to bridge this gap, exploring the different available approaches on emotions within the Platonic corpus.
