Charmides, a charming yet demanding dialogue, "strange and difficult" according to Guthrie, is Plato's first narrative dialogue. The narrator in this dialogue is Socrates, who describes to an unspecified and unseen listener a meeting he had on an Athenian wrestling ground with familiar fellow citizens and their discussion together.
The subject of the discussion was temperance: They were trying to approach a virtue that was considered a kind of prudence, correctness, thoughtfulness, and was included among the virtues considered essential for the conduct of human life.
