Hello My Friends! Welcome Back!
This week I will start out by discussing a new plant of Interest, the very Beautiful Blue Lotus. Afterwards we will dive headfirst into some ideas from the ancient world. Natural Philosophy was Science's Grand Pappy, before we new what to call it. People who thought about the Earth, and natural processes, were such philosophers. Most notably, Socrates, Pythagoras, and Many other had ideas about why things happened in the world. After that we will enjoy together a sample of Lucretius's Text "On The Nature of Things". Translation by Frank O. Copley. I hope you enjoy!
You can email me at any time at thegingerbreadmansdialogues@gmail.com. I will be for ever grateful for your Attention and Ears! Have a wonderful Week!
