Who is the Platonic Troglodyte?

Philosophy for People Allergic to Academia. A neo-Socratic, Aporeticist project.

The Platonic Troglodyte is a project that will document my return to the foundational texts of philosophy, working from Plato’s dialogues.

The major process behind this blog will be reading, analyzing, refining, and exploring these texts as they are. I aim to make no “unearned” assertions.
