In the Fall of 1999, after the completion of the class on “What Socrates Knew,” I began a nine lecture course on “The Myths of Plato: From the Creation of the World to the Sinking of Atlantis,” which dealt with the question of the relationship of philosophy and gave close readings to Plato’s Timaeus and Critias. Unfortunately, I do not have tapes of the second, third, and fourth lectures, and unless they come to light, I cannot bring out the whole course. But the first lecture does stand on its own, so I will release it in two parts.
