Plato’s The Apology
Make sure you address the following questions: Here Socrates is charged of impiety. In your view, do you agree with the Jury’s decision? Is Socrates guilty of corrupting the youth of Athens with his anti-democratic message? Is philosophy a dangerous discipline? Why does Socrates refuse to pay a fine and accept the death penalty? Does this indicate that Socrates is crazy or a man of immense integrity?
