So how can he be a god if he doesn't have good and beautiful things? The six dialogues by the Athenian philosopher Plato?Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, Meno, Phaedo, and Symposium?that are included in this volume make up the majority of his ideas on the perennial issues of human existence. They debate the nuances and complexity of platonic and romantic love, desire, morality, beauty, virtue, and happiness, as well as the fear of illness and death, grief, and loss that pervades humans. Additionally, they analyse Socrates' trial and public execution in order to provide light on his significant teachings and character. Many characters, including Socrates, debate a variety of subjects in-depth throughout Plato's dialogues by posing questions to one another and outlining their opposing points of view.?
