Virtue and Bravery: The Correlation between J.S. Mill and Platos Laches
This paper is about the place of bravery in the philosophical world-view of a utilitarian intellectual like John Stuart Mill. Additionally, this paper looks at Plato's Laches and seeks to determine if Mill favours one account of the truth over another - or if both the conceptions brought forward by Socrates and Laches are entirely consistent with the philosophical underpinnings of Mill's utilitarianism.
