The Melian Dialogue (Thucydides, Pt. 5)
The fifth and final installment of our lecture series on Thucydides, author of The History of the Peloponnesian War. In this video we examine the tension between realism and idealism by reading excerpts from a great dialogue between Athens and the leaders of the free island of Melos.
