Euthyphro
Euthyphro is a Socratic dialogue written by Plato around 399 BC, featuring a conversation between Socrates and Euthyphro, who claims expertise in piety. As Socrates awaits his trial for impiety, he seeks to understand the nature of piety through Euthyphro's teachings. The dialogue introduces the Euthyphro Dilemma, questioning whether the gods love what is holy because it is holy, or if it is holy because the gods love it. This work is significant for its exploration of ethics and morality in relation to divine authority.
