Socrates launched a search for definitions. What is Justice? What is Piety? In general, what is X? It turns out that it can be very difficult to give good answers to these questions. But what would make an answer a good one in the first place? This talk explores some of Plato and Aristotle's insights on this topic.

This dinner seminar will be led by Taylor Pincin (Columbia). It is open to all undergraduates, graduate students, and recent graduates.
