On his daily walks through Athens, Socrates talks to all the people he meets. Know yourself! Do not chase after riches, become a philosopher and strive for truth! The citizens of Athens hate him for that. They arrest him and drag him to court. He is condemned to death by drinking a cup of poisonous hemlock. What should he do should he flee? Should a philosopher fear death? Based on Plato s "Apology of Socrates," "Crito" and "Phaedo," this book tells the story of Socrates, touching in a Socratic, i.e. playfully maieutic way on many central issues of philosophy as death, friendship, truth-speaking and rebellion. The book series Plato & Co. tells stories about the lives and thoughts of great philosophers. Addressing children as well as adult readers, it brings them into contact with philosophy by giving colorful insights into the vastness of thinking, questioning and puzzling. Each volume offers a gripping story, funny anecdotes, deep thoughts and thrilling illustrations. "
