The play presents a satirical exploration of Socrates' trial and death, highlighting themes of government authority and organized religion. Through sharp wit, Voltaire expresses his disdain for both institutions, using Socrates' philosophical stance as a vehicle to critique societal norms. The three acts delve into the tensions between individual thought and oppressive systems, making a poignant statement about the consequences of challenging authority.
