What makes a real man? Courage and a fighting spirit? But what is courage? And what is its relationship to the other human excellences or virtues?

We have all heard of Plato's Republic. And there are other well known Platonic dialogues, like the ApologyCritoMeno, and Symposium.


But Plato's shorter, lesser known, "forgotten" Socratic dialogues are also a treasure trove. Previously only available as a bundle of ten, you can now study them in the Millerman School individually.


In this course, you will dive into Plato's Laches, a dialogue on courage that will help you get to the heart of the question of manliness.

Discover Plato's dialogue on courage with a meticulous walkthrough by Millerman.
