Diamythologõmen 
A Philosophical Portrait of a Philosopher Philosophizing

Dia·mytho·log·õmen: the first person plural present subjunctive active form of an ancient Greek verb meaning ‚to converse, ‚ or, more literally, ‚to tell stories, ‚ and more literally still, ‚to speak about by way of myth.‘ Adapted from Plato’s Phaedo (70b6), the word functions here as a hortatory subjunctive: ‚Let us converse, tell stories, mythologize.‘ The book is a narrative account of the thinking life of a philosopher, in his mind, in the classroom, in scholarship, and in and through the creative writing of philosophy.
