This edition aims not merely to present and combine valuable research but to develop it further. The editor is more sceptical than some recent researchers of the historical accuracy of Plato's version of Socrates' defence, and offers an account of the \u003ci\u003eApology\u003c\/i\u003e as a work of Plato's own art.
