>discuss content

Literally just reference the Greek chart that gets posted in every Greek thread, which we have one of basically every single day. Your only choices are the pre-socratics/sophists, and Plato. Read the two books on the Greek chart that come before Aristotle and that's it.

That anon is giving you shit because having read the sticky you should know this. That's why there's a sticky.

Heh, you're ok, kid... I always like when I get a grasshopper standin' up for himself when I abuse him... *mutters an indistinguishable phrase* Anyway, you want some Greek philosophy, go look yourself up "lit 4chan philosophy guide" on that there Google. Should find your bounty on a google doc, hah...

See you round.....
