The Trial and Death of Socrates
Plato, c. 399 BC (written later)
Socrates defends a life of questions, then faces death calmly. Four short dialogues.
Talk about it
- Was Socrates brave, or stubborn? Where is the line?
- Why does he refuse to escape when he could?
- Would a person who questions everyone the way Socrates did be welcome in your town today?
