Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, And Phaedo by Plato

A sequence of four connected dialogues follows a philosopher who, through questioning and debate, probes the nature of piety and moral knowledge, mounts a spirited defense of a life devoted to inquiry in the face of criminal charges, confronts the tension between personal survival and duty to the laws and the polis, and finally discusses the soul’s immortality and the philosopher’s attitude toward death — together exploring reasoned argument, ethical integrity, civic obligation, and the hope for life beyond the body.
