Socrates Libri
Socrate rimane un enigma, proprio come lo era in vita. Sebbene non abbia scritto nulla di suo pugno, è annoverato tra i pochi pensatori che alterarono irrevocabilmente il panorama della filosofia. Tutta la conoscenza su di lui è di seconda mano e spesso contestata, tuttavia il suo processo e la sua esecuzione da parte della democrazia ateniese formano il mito fondante della filosofia accademica, la sua influenza si irradia ben oltre i suoi confini e attraverso ogni epoca. La sua vita funge da paradigma per la vita filosofica e, più ampiamente, per come si dovrebbe vivere, una strana eredità per qualcuno che promosse il pensiero indipendente e fu condannato per empietà.
