Description
Memorabilia (Ἀπομνημονεύματα) is a collection of Socratic dialogs by Xenophon, a student of Socrates. The lengthiest & most famous of his Socratic writings, the Memorabilia is essentially a defense of Socrates, differing from both his Apology of Socrates to the Jury & Plato's Apology mainly in that the Apologies present Socrates as defending himself before the jury, whereas the former presents Xenophon's own defense of Socrates, offering edifying examples of Socrates' conversations & activities along with occasional commentary from Xenophon. Memorabilia is also known by its Latin title Commentarii & a variety of English translations (Recollections, Memoirs, Conversations of Socrates, etc). The Memorabilia was probably completed after 371 BC, as one passage (III.5) appears to assume the military situation after the Spartan defeat at the battle of Leuctra in that year.
