Plato's Politeia (the work we call The Republic thanks to Cicero's Latin mistranslation) describes the soul as having three parts: reason ( logistikon), spirit ( thumos), and appetite ( epithumia). But throughout the dialogue, Plato also describes a fourth element... repeatedly, and by name. He calls it the auto politeia (self-constitution): the governing principle that determines how the three parts relate. Plato has it in the text. His readers have looked right at it and counted three for 2,400 years.

The museum late takes place on Thursday 26th March, and will feature a range of Star Trek themed events throughout the evening.

And I recently took the most joyously nerdy step yet in my home automation fixation.
