The significance of Platos Apology of Socrates is impossible to overestimate. An account of the famous trial of Socrates in 399 b.c., it appeals to historians, philosophers, political scientists, classicists, and literary critics. It is also essential reading for students of ancient Greek.This new commentary on Platos canonical work is designed to accommodate the needs of students in intermediatelevel Greek classes, where they typically encounter the Apology for the first time. Paul Allen Miller and Charles Platter, two highly respected classicists and veteran instructors, present the Apology in its traditional thirtythreechapter structure. They amplify the text with running commentary and glosses of unfamiliar words at the bottom of each page; brief chapter introductions to relevant philosophical, historical, and rhetorical issues; and a separate series of thoughtprovoking essays, one on each chapter. The essays can serve as bases for class discussions or as starting points for paper topics or general reflection.By integrating background material into the text at regular intervals rather than frontloading it in a lengthy initial overview or burying it in backofthebook endnotes, the authors offer students a rich encounter with the text. Their commentary incorporates the latest research on both the trial of Socrates and Platos version of it, and it engages major philosophical issues from a contemporary perspective. This book is not only a muchneeded aid for students of Greek. It is also the basis of a complete course on the Apology.
