Cover of Xenophon: Apology (PDF)

One of the greatest and most influential thinkers in human history, Greek philosopher Socrates was ultimately sentenced to death after being convicted of impiety and corrupting the minds of Athens’ youth. However, rather than shirking his death sentence, Socrates emphatically embraced it. In The Apology, Socrates’ student Xenophon explains why his prominent teacher chose what some would consider an ignominious end.
