Agora
The agora was a place of encounter... where you might come across Socrates, Diogenes, or other thinkers.
It felt essential to open up a space like this on a site dedicated to meetings!
So many minds, so many different relationships to philosophy — and so many walks of life: students, teachers, doctoral candidates, journalists, association leaders...
Some have made it their profession; others have explored different paths. But they all share one thing: a passion for philosophy and the will to keep that inner fire alive.
Here is what they have to say...
