[For Love of the World on Radio Kingston]

Hannah Arendt Center presents:

For Love of the World on Radio Kingston

Conversations with the Hannah Arendt Center

Tuesday, April 22, 2025
Online Event
6:00 pm – 6:30 pm

This event occurred on:  This month's special guest James Romm, in conversation about his forthcoming book, Plato and the Tyrant, with host Roger Berkowitz, Founder and Academic Director of the Hannah Arendt Center.

Plato and the Tyrant (Norton, May 2025) is a hard look at Plato's political misadventure in the Greek city of Syracuse, where Plato collaborated with a despotic regime in hopes of moderating its absolutism, and at the ways his Republic is connected, in disquieting ways, to that Syracusan episode. 

James Romm is the James H. Ottaway Jr. Professor of Classics at Bard College and author of numerous books on topics from Greek history and culture.  His essays and reviews appear regularly in the Wall Street Journal, the New York Review of Books and the London Review of Books.  

For Love of the World, every fourth Tuesday from 6-6:30 pm on Radio Kingston is your portal to the bold ideas and respectful, deep conversations about contemporary issues that we’re having regularly at the Hannah Arendt Center at Bard College. Join host Roger Berkowitz each month as we delve into the work of one of the most influential thinkers of the 20th century, Hannah Arendt, with renowned scholars and public intellectuals, and exemplify what it means to have a conversation of patient humility, in the Arendtian tradition.
