Inhaltsangabe

The scene is at a dinner party for the literati of Athens, the action a series of speeches by the guests. From these emerge a complete and compex philosphy of love. The pivot of the argument is Socrates' speech in which sensuality is transcended and we move from the sensible to the ideal world. But just as the preceeding speeches are vital to the theme and scheme of progression, so too is the brilliant character sketch of Socrates by Alcibiades which rounds off the dialogue. By combining his formidible skills as a philospher and as an artist, Plato creates in The Symposium an ingenious harmony of thought and word, idea and expression that is playful, profound and provocative.
