Hey guys! I wanted to take a break from drawing Chapel this week and give myself a breather between Seasons 2 and 3. But I wasn’t going to let a week go without giving you guys a new strip to read! I originally drew this strip several months ago, as a guest strip for a comic called Unshelved Book Club. Every month, they invite someone to take over their strip and review a book for them. I chose Plato’s Republic, because I thought it was an unconventional – and therefore very Chapel-esque – choice.
Anyway, I’ll be back next week with more Barnaby and the official start of Season 3!
I went to the maker faire today!
squeeeeeeeee!!!! (^^)
Oh my gosh Emma that is brilliant!
My friend's brother gets to read for half an hour for homework. Instead, we get multiplying and dividing decimals worksheets. We were like, WHAT?!?! YOU GET TO READ HARRY POTTER FOR HOMEWORK!?!?!
Sorry, I ment Faire.
The maker faire is this huge event where people go all out creative with their stuff
there's inventions, statues, soda and mentos and a shop area, there's all SORTS of thing over there!
Plato have 40 some other works that should be read as well. don't just get hooked on just one of them.
That and Plato isn't just the only of the great thinkers and writers of ancient times. You all should go and learn about the full history of the Roman Empire. it's incredable!
Don't worry Taxil, I've been immersing myself in more than just the Republic, believe me. This year I actually HAVE learned the history of the Roman Republic, and also read writers like Dante, Cicero, Machiavelli, Aristotle, and Aquinas. It's amazing, isn't it?
YAY! Can't wait for more Barnaby! Have fun during your break and sorry if I kind of offended you with my LoF ask...I didn't mean to make you weirded out by the ship it was innocent!!! LOVE YA GURL
Oh you didn't offend me at all, it's totally fine! (Also, thank you for the lovely fanart, I'll respond to your email in a bit). I hope you are as excited for more Barnaby as I am!
Plato's Masterpiece, 'The Republic,' is a lengthy dialog discussing several topics such as self, freedom, and the ideal society.
The main question Plato brings up in the test is What is Justice? It's a very interesting inquiry.
He eventually concludes that justices is when everyone confiorms to their role in society. Therefore since MY role in society is that of a child without obligations
it's perfectly just for me NOT to do any chores. Chapel, I'm impressed you've read Plato's Republic, but even THAT's not getting you out of dishes duty
