In 'The Life and Legacy of Socrates,' Xenophon presents a compelling portrayal of the philosopher Socrates, intertwining narrative and philosophical discourse. Written in the 4th century BCE, this work serves as both a biography and a meditation on Socratic thought, emphasizing the moral teachings and the method of dialectical inquiry that Socrates championed. Xenophon's straightforward prose contrasts sharply with Plato's more elaborate dialogues, offering a unique perspective that is both accessible and deeply insightful, thereby capturing the essence of Socratic philosophy within its historical context.
