Please join us for a very interesting talk on at the Cyprus House, 2-6 Vulture Street, West End, QLD 4101 on Thursday the 19th of April 2018 from 6.30 to 9.00pm. This is an event organised by the Cypriot Community of Queensland; the Hellenic Club of Sydney together with the Honourable Justice Anthe Philippides, Supreme Court of Queensland.


It is a free event and everyone is welcome but please register on the link below.

Aristotle is a well-known figure in ancient Greek philosophy and science. He has contributed to the fields of politics, psychology and ethics, making contributions to logic, metaphysics, mathematics, physics, biology, botany, ethics, agriculture, medicine, dance and theatre.

He is often referred to as "Father of Western Philosophy". His way of thinking and analysing has been tested and challenged and continues to this day.

I am sure we all occasionally ask why it was that Greece was the centre for philosophy and democracy.

Prof Edith Hall (born 1959) is a British scholar of classics, specialising in Ancient Greek Literature and cultural history, and Professor in the Department of Classics and Centre for Hellenic Studies at King's College London. She is known for her engaging and humorous style of lectureship, so it is with considerable interest that we await to hear her talking about the Ancient Greeks from her new book.
