At a Glance
Alternative perspective on Socrates
Complements Plato's famous dialogues
Practical wisdom and advice
Written by soldier-historian Xenophon
Description

Philosopher, soldier, and historian, Xenophon was a former student of Socrates who composed The Memorabilia many years after his teachers trial and execution in 399 B.C. This collection of Socratic dialogues presents not the philosophers actual defense to the Athenian court but rather a more general appreciation of his life and thought, although Xenophon does argue that Socrates was innocent of the formal charges against him failure to recognize the gods of Athens, the introduction of new gods, and corruption of the youth. This picture of Socrates differs substantially from that drawn by Plato, who focused on the ancient Greek sages philosophy. Xenophon, on the other hand, offers many examples of the great philosophers conversations with his students and fellow citizens, recounting more of the actual advice Socrates gave to those with whom he spoke. Accordingly, these dialogues offer a fascinating complement to the betterknown works of Plato.
