KIRK FITZPATRICK is Professor of Philosophy at Southern Utah University, where he teaches philosophy and Attic Greek. From 2012 to 2016, he served as Director of the Grace A. Tanner Center at Southern Utah University. His publications focus on leadership, poetry, and music in Plato’s Republic, as well as the philosophy of education, politics, and moral weakness. Fitzpatrick’s recent publications include “Two Songs in the Kallipolis of Plato’s Republic,” in The Political Science Reviewer, vol. 45, no. 1 (2021).
"""A masterful introduction to ancient philosophy. Fitzpatrick knows the contemporary scholarship on these authors, so he can shift from summarizing their thought to scrutinizing individual arguments. Meanwhile the writing remains so accessible that a reader might not notice how much he covers. The prose is precise but relaxed, with details that enrich the texture: the Pythagoreans’ harmonies, the Stoic Horned Argument, Antisthenes’ daily walk to Socrates. Students and instructors alike will benefit."" Nick Pappas, Professor of Philosophy and Classics at City College and the Graduate Center, CUNY."
