Plato's Defense of Socrates

by Plato  ·  translated by Julian K. Morrow

A Modern Voice edition, distilled from our own complete translation of the original.

Charged with corrupting the young and dishonoring the gods, Socrates chose death over abandoning the examined life. The whole arc in four dialogues, Euthyphro, Apology, Crito and Phaedo, distilled into direct modern English from our own complete translation of the Greek.
