Crito

Plato is undoubtedly one of the most important and influential philosophers in the history of thought. He contributed to the institutionalization of philosophy and the formation of the written tradition in philosophy, and was the initiator of the idealist philosophy tradition that would determine the entire medieval thought with its two-world metaphysics. Plato, who is also important in terms of his influence on Christian medieval philosophy and Islamic thought, addressed all the problems discussed throughout the history of thought hundreds of years ago and built the first major philosophical system.

Crito is among Plato's first written works. In this dialogue, Plato introduces the philosophical ideas of his teacher Socrates. Crito, which is about the day before Socrates' death, is also a biographical work and tells us the last period of Socrates' life in great detail.

In the dialogue, Socrates examines a citizen's relationship with his country and its laws and argues that a person is obliged to obey the laws of his country - even if he believes that the laws in question are unjust - and that this obligation comes before anything else.
