Platos account of Socrates trial and death in 399 BC represents asignificant moment in Western literature as well as a watershed inthe life of ancient Athens. In these four dialogues, Plato developsthe Socratic belief in responsibility for ones self and showsSocrates- condemned to suicide by his fellow Athenians-living anddying under his own philosophy. In Euthyphro, Socratesdebates goodness outside the courthouse; Apology sees him incourt, rebutting all charges of impiety; in Crito, herefuses an entreaty to escape from prison; and in Phaedo,Socrates faces his impending death with calmness and a skillfuldiscussion of immortality.
