Of Sophists, Mensheviks, and Cassandras with Marie

  • Summary

  • What do we mean when we talk about the life of the mind?  What is the "intellect" and how can we use it well?  What are some of the hurdles that intellectually inclined people face these days - and that they've faced throughout history?  Jessie and community member Marie set the stage for one of our key themes with a 30,000 overview.

    • The book we're discussing on September 17. 2023 is This Star Shall Abide by Sylvia Engdahl (also published as Heritage of the Star).  You can get it here or as part of a trilogy. (Please note that these are sponsored links.)
    • If you'd like to read more about the book first, here's an article about it from an early issue of Third Factor Magazine.
