This lecture delves into Plato's Timaeus, one of the most complex surviving works of classical antiquity, in which Plato weaves together cosmology, mathematics, and mysticism to describe the creation of the universe as a living, ensouled being. Drawing on commentary from Plutarch and scholar Sarah Broadie (referred to as "an Ashbell"), the lecture traces Timaeus's account of the demiurge shaping the cosmos from disorder into order, the origin of time as "a moving image of eternity," and the Pythagorean geometry underlying the world's soul—including the famous circles of the Same and the Different. Along the way, the discussion touches on the dialogue's Egyptian origins, its relationship to the Republic and Statesman, and its enduring legacy as the archetypal vision of humanity as microcosm, a symbol that would shape Renaissance thought and beyond.
