The blurb:
Platonism played an important role in the development of early Christianity and is essential to a deep understanding of the Christian theological tradition. Join the Hellenic Museum and Bernie Lewin, from the Platonic Academy of Melbourne, for a fascinating lecture which explores the multifaceted relationship between Platonism and Christianity, from the emergence of Hellenistic Judaism to the Platonic revival during the Renaissance.
The full six week course Platonism and Christianity will run again in spring. Watch for details in coming weeks. Otherwise, see the Courses page for all our offerings this Winter.
