Defence of Socrates, Euthyphro, Crito by Plato
5.0
This collection of dialogues details Socrates' trial. Euthyphro is an interesting exploration of what makes something holy/just vs unholy/unjust. It follows Socrates leading Euthyphro through a series of arguments after it is revealed that Euthyphro is about to prosecute his own father for murder.
In Socrates' Apology, Socrates defends himself and what he sees as baseless charges against him. Finally in Crito, Socrates' good friend attempts to persuade him for a final time to run away from his pronounced judgment of death, and Socrates says this would be unjust. This was a very enjoyable set of diaogues, my favorite so far.
