So I've gone through eighteen dialogues so far. Euthydemus, Meno, and the spurious dialogue De Virtute will definitely be done this week. There are some works that I hoped to do, but couldn't quite fit in -- Laches, Menexenus, Plutarch's dialogue on Socrates' daimonion. I think that last I will move to after the Phaedo, which is an influence on it, but my current thought is that next week I'll do Laches, Menexenus, and Hipparchus. This July will also see the Last Days dialogues -- Theatetus, Euthyphro, Sophist, Statesman, Apology, Phaedo, Crito -- which deal with Socrates' trial and death. I haven't done any Xenophon yet, but that will start up in July, as well.
