Manchester Plato Reading Group is a philosophy reading group in Manchester. We read the dialogues of Plato out loud together and discuss them.
The Gorgias is our next dialogue and we will read Thomas Taylor’s translation. Anyone with a love of or interest in philosophy, dialectic, and lively discussion is welcome to join. The first session is on the 29th September, 2026.
Sessions are fortnightly on Tuesdays and always at the same place and time: the top floor of The Briton’s Protection Pub from 06:30pm to 08:00pm.
Calendar
As well as reading the dialogues together, we also benefit from The Prometheus Trust visiting Manchester once a month on Fridays to run seminars on the philosophy of Plato, open to group members and the general public. Please add our Google Calendar to keep track of all events.
