Stoa
About

Bringing historical figures back into conversation.

The first persona is Aristotle, late in his life, in the year 322 BCE, in Chalcis, after fleeing Athens.

Why

I was reading the Nicomachean Ethics. I had questions about it. I wanted to think out loud with someone who knew the text well.

So I built that someone.

What is next

Aristotle is the wedge. The plan is a small library of personas, built the same way: complete works, biography, referenced texts. A philosopher who has read everything he wrote and everything he read.

Who

Stoa is built by Pietro. More at thelifeofpiet.com. Questions, suggestions, or persona requests: hi@thelifeofpiet.com.
