what would be the athenians literary equivalent to Plutarch's work on Sparta or Marcus Aurelius meditations? i.e. ancient greek texts on how to be a virtuous Athenian citizen in everyday life

muchas gracias anon

Apology

to be pious, not to abandon ones post, to obey the laws, to shepherd the youth.

Republic too, when he describes the castes of citizens.

wait, feeling dumb here but >to be pious, not to abandon ones post, to obey the laws, to shepherd the youth

I cant find these. Are they titles or literally the virtues that Plato promoted?

I know it's not technically philosophy, but Athenian theater was a popular source of wisdom.
