The Apology of Socrates (388) (edit title/settings)

BookCrazy - VERY limited time online for the foreseeable future edited the description of The Apology of Socrates Monday, February 22, 2010.

• (The) Apology (of Socrates) is Plato's version of the speech given by Socrates as he defends himself against the charges of being a man "who corrupted the young, refused to worship the gods, and created new deities". "Apology" here has its earlier meaning (now usually expressed by the word "apologia") of speaking in defense of a cause or of one's beliefs or actions (from the Greek απολογία).
