_________________________
Laches (Λάχης) is a Socratic dialogue written by Plato. Participants in the discourse present competing definitions of the concept of courage. In the discussion of the main thesis of the Dialogue—'What is Courage?' the antagonism of the two characters is still more clearly brought out; and in this, as in the preliminary question, the truth is parted between them. In this Dialogue the contrast between the mode of cross-examination which is practised by Laches and by Socrates, and also the manner in which the definition of Laches is made to approximate to that of Nicias, are worthy of attention. The Dialogue offers one among many examples of the freedom with which Plato treats facts. For the scene must be supposed to have occurred between 424 BCE, the year of the battle of Delium, and 418 BCE, the year of the battle of Mantinea, at which Laches fell. But if Socrates was more than seventy years of age at his trial in 399 BCE (see Apology), he could not have been a young man at any time after the battle of Delium.
