Viac o knihe

Delve into the exploration of love through a lively translation of Plato's Symposium, where prominent Athenians engage in a contest of speeches praising Eros, the Greek god of love. Key figures like Phaedrus, Pausanias, and Socrates present varied perspectives on love's nature, including its connection to physical attraction and divinity. The dialogue culminates in Alcibiades' tribute to Socrates as the embodiment of love. This edition enhances accessibility by featuring the original Greek alongside the translation, making Plato's profound insights more enjoyable for contemporary readers.
