Socrates in Prison. We have already seen Socrates pleading in his own defence, and after his condemnation refusing to attempt his escape from prison, and now Plato introduces him, spending the last day of his life in converse with a chosen circle of friends. Most of these appear in other dialogues. Hermocrates is there, that ' unlucky brother ' of the rich Callias, who is conspicuous in the Cratylus; Ctesippus and Menexenus, the boy friends of the Lysis; Apollodorus, 'the mad- man, ' with whom ...we have made acquaintance in the Symposium; the aged Crito and his son Critobulus, whom we have met in the Euthydemus and the Apology ; Aeschines, whose name also occurs in the Apology, and who is reported to have composed several dialogues ; Antisthenes, the founder of the Cynic school, who is not mentioned elsewhere in the Platonic writings; Epigenes, probably the son of Antiphon of Cephisus (Apol. 33 E). Plato himself is said to have been ill, and Cleombrotus and Aristippus to have been absent in Aegina.
