Spirit in the Cage and the will to triumph

Peter Churchill recounts two years as a war prisoner in his book The Spirit in the Cage. He argues that blaming God for misfortune is wrong and that faith can turn despair into light. The piece weaves in a student’s verse about sorrow and quotes Socrates Plato and Aristotle on will. It urges personal responsibility and faith as a path to freedom.
