Athens Corner
These are previews from my website AthensCorner.com of in-depth discussions on the Western world's greatest books in philosophy and political philosophy. There are also occasional previews for my Fathers & Sons series on the website devoted to guiding and assisting fathers who themselves want to educate their sons in the great books, and so the emphasis is upon examples of excellence of virtue.

Leo Strauss and Historicism": In part three of my ongoing series on the legacy of the imagery of the Cave and Enlightenment, I discuss the thought of Leo Strauss and his imagery of "the pit/cave beneath the Cave" to describe postmodernity. I'm joined by @AlexPriou so that he can share his truly invaluable insight and expertise on the subject.
