Brought to you by Penguin.

This Penguin Classic is performed by Justin Avoth and Laurence Dobiesz. This definitive recording includes an introduction by Christopher Rowe read by Justin Avoth.

Consider just this, and give your minds to this alone: whether or not what I say is just.

Plato's account of Socrates' trial and death (399 BC) is a significant moment in classical literature and the life of classical Athens. In these four dialogues, Plato develops the Socratic belief in responsibility for one's self and shows Socrates living and dying under his philosophy. In Euthyphro, Socrates debates goodness outside the courthouse, Apology sees him in court, rebutting all charges of impiety, in Crito, he refuses an entreaty to escape from prison, and in Phaedo, Socrates faces his impending death with calmness and skillful discussion of immortality.

Christopher Rowe's introduction to his powerful new translation examines the book's themes of identity and confrontation and explores how its content is less historical fact than a promotion of Plato's Socratic philosophy.

If you are looking for a way to enter into Western philosophy, this is a great starting point, not only because so many works grace their origins to Plato, but because this is easy to understand and ultimately digestible, which many philosophical works are not.

As such, though many might find other works more thought-provoking or powerful, this, in my opinion, is a wonderful starting point for such a worthwhile journey. The reader paces well, the characters are voiced distinctly, and nothing about the “acting” detracts from the content or its seriousness.

Best Book Ever

Sometimes the voices get confused as to who is who. But after all it's an audiobook, not a play.

Nice to have this all in one place

A thought experiment into the divine and the soul. It will make you question what is all around you.

Very thought provoking

A capital “C” Classic short collection of works often assigned as the first text in core curriculum, great books, Intro to the Humanities, Greek Civ and Intro Philosophy courses.

Perfect short length for re-listening and discussing with a book club. Lots of strange ideas about the body, the soul, and cosmology from a pre-Christian point of view. It’s like directly hearing from people from another world and time.

One of the best entry points for Plato, Greek history and the Western philosophy on Audible. Great translation and performance. This audio edition also has helpful supplementary commentary.

The last text in the volume, Phaedo, works as an easy introduction to Plato overall before diving into The Republic.

Foundational and fun

Just so everyone is aware, if you buy Penguin’s The Last Days of Socrates and buy the audiobook, the narration of the audiobook is a done from a different translation and not from the Penguin Edition. This is both stupid and misleading. Why would you even advertise the audiobook from the Penguin Edition if you are not going to do the narration from that edition? That’s so stupid and misleading. Horrible.

WARNING: THIS AUDIOBOOK IS NOT FROM THE PENGUIN EDITION

I use audible to study for my English class and this doesn't even match my physical copy of the book. This was a waste and it is more difficult to read than the original. Also, how is it that there are only one or two audiobooks on The Last Days Of Socrates? I don't even want to try the other one because it would probably be a rip off too.

I don't understand

Socrates is is the best person who ever lived. second, I have a learning disability so when I read I like to hear the words are written in the book for me. therefore, the audio does not fit the book at all, the story that was said here just not the match the book at all. Finally, that is why I gave one star all around. but the story is great

Socrates oh Socrates
