Description
The Symposium by Plato is a profound and engaging dialogue that explores the nature of love, beauty, and desire. Set at a banquet attended by notable figures from Athens, including Socrates, the dialogue unfolds through a series of speeches on the topic of Eros (love). Each participant offers a different perspective, ranging from the physical and erotic to the philosophical and spiritual. The speeches culminate in Socrates’ recounting of the teachings of Diotima, a wise woman who presents love as a ladder of ascent, starting with physical attraction and leading to the contemplation of the pure Form of beauty and the pursuit of wisdom.
