    Thanks again for a wonderful, insightful video. Using lack of knowledge of good as a basis for evil, I believe, can also showcase what evil is on a cosmic scale: Disconnection from the Gods themselves, who are all-knowing and lacking in no such knowledge.

      Hi. I don't read Aristotle, but as for the others, Thomas Taylor stays true to the spiritual dimensions of these writings. His English is a bit dated, so it takes some getting used to. I usually use the Loeb translations in the reading group videos I post weekly. They are pretty solid for a university press, and most of Plato's dialogues are available for free download on Internet Archive. There is also a less-known translator named Juan Balboa who does trans-linear translations that attempt to stay as true as possible to the Greek. Some of his earlier translations are available on Lulu and there are also some translations for free download on Internet Archive. I hope this helps!
