De què tracta
Els tres diàlegs de la mort de Sòcrates aplegats: la defensa davant del tribunal, la conversa a la presó sobre per què no fugir, i l'últim dia amb la copa de cicuta.
Context i història
Atenes, 399 aC: el judici, l'empresonament i l'execució de Sòcrates, vistos per Plató en tres peces que la tradició llegeix seguides com els actes d'un sol drama. L'Apologia dona la defensa; el Critó, el perquè de no escapar-se quan era fàcil — el pacte amb les lleis de la ciutat —; el Fedó, la conversa final sobre l'ànima i la mort serena al capvespre. Juntes formen el relat fundacional de la filosofia occidental: el filòsof que viu i mor conforme al que pensa.

_Socr._ You say well, by Juno! and have found a great abundance of those that confer benefit. But what further? Can these hearers make them better, or not? _Mel._ They, too, can. _Socr._ And what of the senators? _Mel._ The senators, also. _Socr._ But, Melitus, do those who attend the public assemblies corrupt the younger men? or do they all make them better? _Mel._ They too. _Socr._ All the Athenians, therefore, as it seems, make them honorable and good, except me; but I alone corrupt them. Do you say so? _Mel._ I do assert this very thing. _Socr._ You charge me with great ill-fortune. But answer me: does it appear to you to be the same, with respect to horses? Do all men make them better, and is there only some one that spoils them? or does quite the contrary of this take place? Is there some one person who can make them better, or very few; that is, the trainers? But if the generality of men should meddle with and make use of horses, do they spoil them? Is not this the case, Melitus, both with respect to horses and all other animals? It certainly is so, whether you and Anytus deny it or not. For it would be a great good-fortune for the youth if only one person corrupted, and the rest benefited them. However, Melitus, you have sufficiently shown that you never bestowed any care upon youth; and you clearly evince your own negligence, in that you have never paid any attention to the things with respect to which you accuse me. 13. Tell us further, Melitus, in the name of Jupiter, whether is it better to dwell with good or bad citizens? Answer, my friend; for I ask you nothing difficult. Do not the bad work some evil to those that are continually near them, but the good some good? _Mel._ Certainly. _Socr._ Is there any one that wishes to be injured rather than benefited by his associates? Answer, good man; for the law requires you to answer. Is there any one who wishes to be injured? _Mel._ No, surely. _Socr.…
