forum (n.)​

mid-15c., "place of assembly in ancient Rome," from Latin forum "marketplace, open space, public place,"

apparently akin to foris, foras "out of doors, outside". The sense of "assembly, place for public discussion" is recorded by 1680s.

The Socratic method for learning through the public space ?

Hi there, I hope you are doing Well. The Socratic method reflects the essence of a public forum by promoting dialogue and critical thinking through questioning. Just as ancient forums allowed diverse ideas to flourish, this method encourages participants to explore their beliefs and learn from each other, making knowledge accessible to all.

I don’t think one should over-romanticize the history of public fora or the Socratic method- people were banished from Greek cities, and of course there was hemlock.

Well expressed

Meanwhile, without having been there over 2,398 years ago, one can only speculate why envious/jealous/prideful sophists were so adamant to destroy Socrates and his truth-seeking method . . . Plato, Aristotle, Judean Philosophers, Roman Stoa, and all other truth-seekers throughout the centuries since to present day are undoubtedly most humbly grateful

Thank you very much

As you see GTD fit. . . .
