À propos de cet audio

Raven descends beneath the surface story to examine the philosophical architecture supporting Atlantis. She explores Plato's intent as a philosopher writing in the ruins of Athens's golden age, analyzing how Atlantis functions as a thought experiment about civilizational decline. The episode dissects the pattern of corruption Plato encoded into the myth: divine nature diluted through generations, virtue replaced by ambition, power confused with greatness, and the inevitable catastrophe that follows hubris. Raven traces how this pattern repeats throughout human history and applies to contemporary concerns about technology, power, and sustainability. The episode reveals Atlantis as a mirror showing every civilization its potential fate.
