The Ironic Defense of Socrates: Plato's Apology
Leibowitz, David M. (Kenyon College, Ohio)
This book offers a controversial interpretation of Plato's Apology of Socrates. David Leibowitz arrives at unconventional conclusions about Socrates' teaching on virtue, politics, and the gods; the significance of his famous turn from natural philosophy to political philosophy; and the purpose of his insolent 'defense speech'.
