Charmidés, Lachés, Lysis, Theagés
The Charmides (Gr. Χαρμίδης) is a dialogue by Plato in which Socrates discusses the sophrosyne with a beautiful and popular boy. This Greek word is commonly translated as moderation, self-control, or restraint. The greater part of Plato's dialogue Lysis is an attempt to point out the various features of amiability.
