The Apology of Socrates is a dialogue written by Plato that presents a version of the speech that Socrates delivered in his defense during his trial in 399 BC. Socrates was accused of corrupting the youth and not believing in the gods of Athens. In his speech, Socrates attempts to refute these accusations and defend his philosophical way of life. This Gredos edition includes a translation and prologue by Julio Calonge.

Plato was an ancient Greek philosopher of Classical Athens who is most commonly considered the foundational thinker of the Western philosophical tradition. An innovator of the literary dialogue and dialectic forms, Plato influenced all the major areas of theoretical philosophy and practical philosophy, and was the founder of the Academy, a philosophical school in Athens where Plato taught the collection of philosophical theories that would later become known as Platonism.
