About this listen

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.

What You’ll Discover:

  • The Republic – Plato’s profound vision of justice, the ideal state, and the philosopher-king.
  • Apology, Crito, Phaedo – The gripping trial, defiant defense, and final moments of Socrates.
  • Symposium & The Clouds – Plato’s exaltation of love and Aristophanes’ comedic critique of Socratic absurdity.
  • Memorabilia & Oeconomicus – Xenophon’s personal accounts of Socrates’ daily wisdom and moral teachings.
  • Apology by Xenophon – A stark and practical contrast to Plato’s philosophical version.
  • All His Classic Works – Presented in clear, faithful translations for both newcomers and seasoned listeners.

This volume is more than a collection—it’s an invitation to walk with the man whose questions still shape the world. What is the good life?
