Sinossi

Join two distinguished generals and Socrates in a search for the definition of courage, only to find that even experienced soldiers struggle to articulate the virtue they embody. The conversation moves from the specific training of young men to the broader nature of bravery, exposing the limitations of conventional wisdom. Despite the failure to reach a conclusive definition, the dialogue illustrates the importance of intellectual humility and the complexity of moral education. It serves as a timeless reminder that possessing a virtue does not necessarily equate to understanding it.

    Lying in the middle of a plain in modern day Iran is a forgotten ancient city: Persepolis. Built two and a half thousand years ago, it was known in its day as the richest city under the sun. Persepolis was the capital of Achaemenid Persian Empire, the largest empire the world had ever seen, but after its destruction, it was largely forgotten for nearly 2,000 years, and the lives and achievements of those who built it were almost entirely erased from history. Alexander the Great’s troops razed the city to the ground in a drunken riot to celebrate the conquest of the capital, after which time and sand buried it for centuries. 
    The Parthian people created an empire that lasted almost 500 years, from the mid-3rd century BCE until 224 CE, and it stretched from the Euphrates River in the west to Central Asia and the borders of Bactria in the east. In fact, the expansive empire challenged the Romans on numerous occasions for supremacy in the Near East. 
    During the first half of the 1st millennium CE, an empire arose in Persia that extended its power and influence to Mesopotamia in the east, Arabia in the south, the Caucasus Mountains in the north, and as far east as India. This empire, known alternatively as the Sasanian Empire or Sassanid Empire, was the last of three great dynasties in Persia—the Achaemenid and the Parthian being the first two dynasties—before the rise of Islam. 
    Amid the upheaval in the Islamic world following Muhammad’s death, the Umayyad Caliphate lasted for less than a century, but in that time it managed to become one of the most influential of the major caliphates established following him. 	The Umayyads would be replaced by the far more intelligent and crafty Abbasids, who managed to wield powerful tools like propaganda to undermine their opponents, but eventually, the Ottomans would consolidate control of the area for nearly 500 years.

    Richard III from Jacob Abbott's "Makers of History" series details the dark, turbulent, and controversial life of King Richard III of England. First published in 1858, the biography focuses on the brutal climax of the Wars of the Roses (the civil wars between the House of York and the House of Lancaster).    Abbott provides a balanced, psychological examination of Richard, moving away from pure Shakespearean caricature to look at how a young prince was systematically corrupted by a lifelong environment of violence, political survival, and unchecked ambition.    The book follows Richard's journey from a loyal brother and fierce warrior to England's most infamous usurper:    The House of York: The book opens with the background of Richard's mother, Lady Cecily Neville, and the fierce royal rivalry that forced Richard to grow up surrounded by warfare and exile.    The Reign of Edward IV: Abbott details Richard's youth as a fiercely loyal, highly capable military commander supporting his older brother, King Edward IV, on the battlefield.    The Princes in the Tower: The structural core of the book covers the sudden death of Edward IV. Richard is named Lord Protector of his 12-year-old nephew, Edward V, but swiftly declares the boy and his brother illegitimate, locking them in the Tower of London where they mysteriously disappear.    The Usurpation and Cruel Reign: Abbott chronicles Richard's short, paranoid reign as King Richard III, highlighting how his actions turned his closest allies—including the Duke of Buckingham—against him.    The Battle of Bosworth Field: The biography culminates in the historic 1485 battle where Richard faces Henry Tudor. Abbott describes Richard fighting with desperate bravery on the field before being slain, ending the Plantagenet dynasty.
