I've chosen to read Menexenus next, since we've just finished Lysis, in which Menexenus was one of the boys, while here he is a little older. It is unclear how a dialogue which is mostly a sample of a funeral oration delivered by Socrates to Menexenus will support my contention that Platonic dialogues are dramatizations of one or other idea, and it will be particularly interesting if this turns out to be the first dialogue to disprove my hypothesis.

Here I read through Platonic dialogues, translating and commenting on the Greek text as I go.
