Description: Plato: The Apology of Socrates and Xenophon: The Apology of Socrates by Plato, Xenophon, Nicholas Denyer Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Provides an edition suitable for students of Plato and Xenophons accounts of how Socrates, on trial for his life, defended himself and his philosophy. The Commentary explores literary, linguistic, and philosophical aspects, while the Introduction discusses Socrates, his philosophy, Socratic dialogues, and Athenian legal procedures. Publisher Description In 399 BC Socrates was prosecuted, convicted, sentenced to death and executed. These events were the culmination of a long philosophical career, a career in which, without writing a word, he established himself as the figure whom all philosophers of the next few generations wished to follow. The Apologies (or Defence Speeches) by Plato and Xenophon are rival accounts of how, at his trial, Socrates defended himself and his philosophy. This edition brings together both Apologies within a single volume. The commentary answers literary, linguistic and philosophical questions in a way that is suitable for readers of all levels, helping teachers and students engage more closely with the Greek texts. The introduction examines Socrates himself, the literature generated by his trial, Athenian legal procedures, his guilt or innocence of the crimes for which he was executed, and the rivalry between Xenophon and Plato.
