My first thought is to just discuss methods of learning things. It will get Archimedes to discuss methods of learning things, and could result in him thinking of the scientific method.
Also, does he know about how this works? If so, I’d talk about the scientific method, he’d hear about his epistemological approach, realize that I feel it is important to talk about an epistemological approach, and figure that I must believe his is wrong. He’ll then think about it, and may come up with the scientific method.
I wonder what would happen if I just construct an argument that slavery is good.
