Summary

The Apology of Socrates, by Plato, is the Socratic dialogue that presents the speech of legal self-defense, which Socrates presented at his trial for impiety and corruption in 399 BC. 

Specifically, the Apology of Socrates is a defense against the charges of corrupting the young and “not believing in the gods in whom the city believes, but in other daimonia that are novel” to Athens.
