Dans l'Apologie de Socrate, Platon rapporte les plaidoyers de Socrate lors de son procès en -399 à Athènes qui déboucha sur sa condamnation à mort. La défense se déroule en trois parties, toutes en lien direct avec la mort. Socrate se défend devant les juges, mais aussi devant toute la cité d'Athènes (composant le Tribunal de la Cité). Il répond aux trois chefs d'accusation déposés contre lui : corruption de la jeunesse, non-reconnaissance de l'existence des dieux traditionnels athéniens, et introduction de nouvelles divinités dans la cité.Il y eut trente jours d'intervalle entre la condamnation de Socrate et sa mort, pendant lesquels il resta enchaîné dans sa prison.
