Born at Athens of a noble family Plato aspired to political activity. Dismayed at the inequities of the Athenian tyranny and later at the execution of his teacher Socrates under the democracy he turned towards philosophy in search of an alternative to the unstable and unjust public life of the time. He also sought unity behind the changing impressions of the visible universe.All Plato's writing except for The Apology and the Letters is in dialogue form.The Apology records Socrates' defense at his trial. These dialogues are philosophically inconclusive but are considered best to represent the historical Socrates." BenÈt's Reader's Encyclopedia810. "Phaedo a dialogue by Plato. In it Phaedo a disciple of Socrates describes the last hour of his teacher's life. Socrates and his friends discuss the possibility of the immortality of the soul. The doctrine of ideas and the theory of reminiscence are the most important arguments" BenÈt's Reader's Encyclopedia 797.
