The Euthyphro is crucially important for understanding Plato's
presentation of the last days of Socrates, dramatized in four brief
dialogues: Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, and Phaedo. In addition to
narrating this evocative series of events in the life of Plato's
philosophical hero, the texts also can be read as reflecting how a
wise man faces death. This particular dialogue contains Socrates'
vivid examination of the intentions of Euthyphro to prosecute his
own father for murder and culminates in an attempt to understand
holiness-a topic central both to Euthyphro's justification of his
actions and to the charge of impiety that Socrates faces before the
Athenian court. This accessible student commentary by Charles
Platter presents an introduction to the Euthyphro, the full Greek
text, and a commentary designed for undergraduates and selected
graduate students. As part of the series Michigan Classical
Commentaries, now edited by Josiah Osgood and Alexander Sens at
Georgetown University, and K. Sara Myers at the University of
Virginia, the volume is sized and priced for student use.
