This e-book is an extract from Encounters that Changed the World and is also available as part of that complete publication.
In many relationships we know a great deal about a friendship from one participant’s point of view and much less from the other’s. Because Plato wrote and Socrates did not, we know a great deal about what Plato thought of Socrates, but we know absolutely nothing about what Socrates thought of Plato. We think of Plato as Socrates’ greatest pupil and perhaps Socrates did too ... or did he see the young Plato as just another pupil? This book shines a light back in time to reveal great friendships that were so significant that they changed the world forever.
Contents: Plato and Socrates, Elizabeth I and Sir Walter Raleigh, Richard Savage and Samuel Johnson, Hume and Rousseau, Goethe and Schiller, Charles Darwin and Charles Lyell, Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung, Grigori Rasputin and Tsarina Alexandra, C.S.Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, Michael Tippett and T.S.Eliot
