Sokrateen puolustuspuhe by Plato
QR code
"Sokrateen puolustuspuhe" by Plato is a Socratic dialogue written after 399 BC. The work presents Socrates's courtroom defense against charges of corrupting Athens's youth and impiety. Facing a jury of approximately 500 Athenian men, Socrates rejects sophisticated oratory in favor of plain speech and cross-examination. Rather than compromise his integrity to avoid punishment, he maintains his philosophical principles. The dialogue captures one of history's most famous trials and its fatal outcome. (This
