1896. This work is not intended for classical scholars or professed
Platonists; but rather for the large and increasing class of
students who do not wish to be debarred altogether from an
acquaintance with Greek literature by their ignorance of the Greek
language. For the benefit of such readers I have endeavored, with
the help of extracts selected mostly from Plato, to draw a picture
of Socrates' relation to his immediate entourage and to Athenian
society in general. Contents: Athens Before and After the Persian
Wars; The Part Played by Socrates in History; Socrates in Plato's
Dialogues: The Sophists; The Better Teachers of the Time: Gorgias
and Protagoras; The Worse Teachers: Euthydemus and Thrasymachus;
Socrates Among the Young: Lysis and Charmides; The Symposium; The
Xenophontic Socrates; The Clouds; Trial and Death of Socrates; and
The Story of Er.
