The Phaedo is acknowledged to be one of Plato's masterpieces,
showing him both as a philosopher and as a dramatist at the height
of his powers. For its moving account of the execution of Socrates,
the Phaedo ranks among the supreme literary achievements of
antiquity. It is also a document crucial to the understanding of
many ideas deeply ingrained in western culture, and provides one of
the best introductions to Plato's thought. This new edition is
eminently suitable for readers new to Plato, offering a readable
translation which is accessible without the aid of a commentary and
assumes no prior knowledge of the ancient Greek world or language.
About the Series: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has
made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the
globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to
scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of
other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading
authorities, voluminous notes to clarify the text, up-to-date
bibliographies for further study, and much more.
