Phaedo recounts the final hours of Socrates through a narrative told by his disciple Phaedo to a group of listeners in Phlius. Following a thirty-day delay of his execution due to a sacred voyage, Socrates spends his last day conversing with close friends and disciples in prison. The text details the attendees, the dismissal of Xanthippe, and Socrates's initial reflections on the relationship between pleasure and pain and his poetic adaptation of Aesop.
