Laches

Plato

Sinopse

In "Laches," Plato presents a profound exploration of virtue and courage through a dialectical dialogue set in the context of Athenian society. The text is characterized by its Socratic method, as dialogues unfold between Socrates, Laches, and Nicias, probing the nature of bravery and its implications for the lives of citizens and soldiers. Through rich philosophical discourse, Plato navigates the complexities of moral absolutism versus relativism, reflecting the intellectual currents of the Classical period, and inviting the reader to consider how philosophical inquiry can illuminate ethical living. Plato, an esteemed philosopher and student of Socrates, composed "Laches" as a means of grappling with the Socratic tradition which emphasizes the importance of defining virtues through rational examination. Having lived through tumultuous periods in Greek history, including the Peloponnesian War, Plato's reflections on virtue and human behavior resonate with his commitment to uncovering the foundations of ethical living and the responsibilities of citizenship. This compelling dialogue is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, ethics, or Athenian political thought. "Laches" challenges readers to engage deeply with concepts of virtue and courage, fostering a critical examination of their own beliefs and the ethical dimensions of their lives.

The Heart of Therapy -...

Laura Barnett

This thoughtful and heartfelt book develops two main themes: the healing power of a compassionate understanding towards ourselves and others, and the ways boundaries are set within and around various areas of our lives. 
 
 
 
It examines how we live these boundaries, how they impact us, and what it takes to live these with deeper satisfaction. This book also addresses shame and rage; the impact of trauma; the power of parental messages, spoken and unspoken; and transgenerational burdens. A theoretical chapter summarizes the author's integrative, phenomenological approach: it brings the insights of a body-focused trauma therapy and a systemic lens to an overarching existential perspective. Numerous vignettes, case studies, and client-therapist dialogues illustrate reflections on life, philosophy, and therapeutic modalities and practice. 
 
 
 
This book will be a thought-provoking listen for trainee and practicing counselors and psychotherapists, or anyone looking for self-reflection on their own practices, life, and ultimately, what it means to be human.
