Conversation of Socrates

Xenophon2004
Books
After the execution of Socrates in 399 BC, a number of his followers wrote dialogues featuring him as the protagonist. Xenophon's portrait is one of two that have survived and while it offers a very personal interpretation of Socratic thought, it also reveals much about the man and his philosophical views.
