🔖 About “Crito”
In “Crito”, Plato presents a dialogue between Socrates and his friend Crito, who urges Socrates to escape from prison and avoid his execution. The conversation delves into themes of justice, law, and moral integrity, as Socrates defends his decision to accept the verdict of the Athenian court, even at the cost of his own life. It is one of the great works of philosophical literature, exploring the responsibilities of the individual within society and the nature of justice itself.
