This volume contains three parts leading to Socrates’ death recounted by Plato. In the first, part, Socrates gives a speech defending himself against charges of “corrupting the young, and by not believing in the gods in whom the city believes, but in other daimonia that are novel”. He gives a three part speech to the jury that eventually finds him guilty and sentences him to death.
In the second part is a dialogue between Socrates and his friend Crito, who has offered to buy his way out of prison. Socrates refuses and explains his views on justice.
The third part is a dialogue between Socrates and one of his students on the last day of his life. It discusses the nature of the afterlife and the immortal soul. This text forms some of the foundation of western thought on philosophy, particularly dualities.
