About this listen

Apology by Plato stands as one of the most profound and influential works in Western philosophy. In this timeless dialogue, Plato recounts the trial of Socrates, who stands before the Athenian jury accused of impiety and corrupting the youth. Rather than pleading for mercy, Socrates delivers a powerful defense of his life, values, and pursuit of truth.

Through sharp reasoning, humility, and unwavering moral conviction, Socrates explains why questioning accepted beliefs is essential for a just and meaningful life. He challenges his accusers, dismantles the charges against him, and exposes the fear and ignorance at the heart of public opinion. Socrates’ reflections on wisdom—knowing that one knows nothing—remain among the most quoted ideas in philosophy.

Narrated with clarity and depth by Gary Middleton, this audiobook captures the dignity, courage, and philosophical brilliance of Socrates’ final stand. More than a historical document, Apology is a timeless meditation on integrity, justice, and the search for truth—still as relevant today as it was in Ancient Athens.
