Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Plato's Apology and Crito: With Notes
Foreign scholars. And, though their favorite classic author is now brought again within the reach of American students, and restored in some measure to his proper place in college education, in Presi dent Woolsey's scholarly edition of the Gorgias, and Professor Lewis' profound Annotations on por tions of the Laws, still many an older and many a younger scholar cannot but sigh to see the simpler and more Socratic Dialogues of Plato superseded, even by the more finished dramatic imitations of his middle life, or the more profound moral and political speculations of his riper years. It is to meet expressed regrets and felt wants of this kind that the present edition of the Apology and Orito is given to the public.
