The Complete Socrates Collection

What if a man who wrote nothing became the foundation of Western philosophy?

The Complete Socrates Collection is the ultimate anthology of works capturing the life, thought, and paradox of history’s most enigmatic philosopher. This modern edition unites the classic writings of Plato, Xenophon, and Aristophanes—each offering a distinct window into the mind and mission of Socrates.

Spanning high philosophy, personal testimony, and comic satire, this collection presents Socrates as teacher, martyr, gadfly, and mystery. These timeless dialogues invite you into the heart of Socratic inquiry—asking what it means to live wisely, justly, and well.
