Socrates Livres
Socrate demeure une énigme, tout comme il l'était de son vivant. Bien qu'il n'ait rien écrit lui-même, il est compté parmi la poignée de penseurs qui ont irrémédiablement modifié le paysage de la philosophie. Toutes les connaissances à son sujet sont de seconde main et souvent contestées, pourtant son procès et son exécution par la démocratie athénienne forment le mythe fondateur de la philosophie académique, son influence rayonnant bien au-delà de ses frontières et à travers toutes les époques. Sa vie sert de paradigme à la vie philosophique et, plus largement, à la manière dont on devrait vivre, un étrange héritage pour quelqu'un qui encourageait la pensée indépendante et fut condamné pour impiété.
