"Plato's Euthyphro, Apology, and Crito portrays Socrates' words and deeds during his trial for disbelieving in the gods of Athens and corrupting the Athenian youth, and constitutes a defense of Socrates the man and his way of life - the philosophic life. The twelve essays in the volume, written by leading classical philosophers, investigate various aspects of these works by Plato, including the significance of Plato's characters, Socrates' revolutionary religious ideas, and the relationship between historical events and Plato's texts."--BOOK JACKET.
