Excellent class. I'm studying Plato's Laches and trying to find an answer to the question: is cowardice a kind of ignorance? This was super helpful. Thank you for uploading
just a question, can the soul mean in some light ( the good). if so "wise endurance of the soul" could mean then not giving up on what we can live up to because we want to be happy, then carrying out of our morals
Re courage and sides on a war. Would a German fighting in WW2, who commits an act of valour in war, that is diametrically apposed to the central Dogma that makes them “evil” not be a courageous act? Such as for example a German not taking a Jewish child from their parents and lying to their superiors?

Courage seems to be a preservative.
Re courage and sides on a war.

Thanks for this lecture. Very helpful. Is there a video for the 'next time' when you promised to discuss the knowledge one?
Very useful!
