The philosophical subject of the dialogue is the immortality of the soul. It is set in the last hours prior to the death of Socrates, and is Plato's fourth and last dialogue to detail the philosopher's final days, following Euthyphro, Apology, and Crito.Translated (in English) By : Benjamin Jowett***The Apology of Socrates*** (Greek: ???????? ?????????, Apolog�a Sokr�tous; Latin: Apologia Socratis), by Plato, is the Socratic dialogue that presents the speech of legal self-defence, which Socrates presented at his trial for impiety and corruption, in 399 BC.*Euthyphro*Euthyphro (/?ju???fro?/; Ancient Greek: ????????, romanized: Euthyphr?n; c. 399-395 BC), by Plato, is a Socratic dialogue whose events occur in the weeks before the trial of Socrates (399 BC), between Socrates and Euthyphro.*Crito*Crito (/?kra?to?/ KRY-toh or /?kri?to?/ KREE-toh; Ancient Greek: ?????? [kr�t??n]) is a dialogue by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato.
