Socrates continues to be a highly puzzling personage for modern scholars, most of which have seen in Plato the most reliable source for the reconstruction of this philosopher's unwritten teaching, thus leaving aside Xenophon's own testimony on the assumption of its lesser worth. Based on the researches done by Luccioni, Souto Delibes and Salay, this study aims at making some passing remarks on the image of Socrates that modern day critics can get from Xenophon's Socratic writings.
