About “Euthyphro”

Euthyphro is a philosophical work by Plato presented as a Socratic dialogue set in the weeks before Socrates' trial in 399 BC. The conversation takes place between Socrates and Euthyphro, who claims to understand the nature of piety. They attempt to define piety, but the discussion ends without a clear answer. The dialogue raises a central question: Is something pious because the gods approve of it, or do the gods approve of it because it is pious? This unresolved issue has sparked extensive philosophical debate. The work explores themes of piety and justice through a structured exchange of ideas.
