Overview
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Plato’s account of the dialogues between Socrates and his friends on love and desire, truth and illusion, spiritual transcendence, and the qualities of a good ruler has had a decisive influence on our perception of human relationships, society, and power. Set against the backdrop of an Athenian banquet, speech becomes a quest, and the eulogy of love an inquiry into the very nature of knowledge and beauty. Along with the famous allegory of the cave, The Symposium shaped the tradition of Western philosophy.
