Om Symposium

Plato's Symposium is a philosophical work that explores the nature of love, desire, and the pursuit of wisdom. It takes the form of a dialogue among a group of prominent Athenians gathered at a symposium, where each speaker presents different perspectives on love and its manifestations. Plato delves into the idea that true love goes beyond mere physical attraction and encompasses the quest for wisdom and the transcendence of the individual self. He presents the concept of "Platonic love," which transcends physical beauty and aims for a higher, more abstract form of love rooted in intellectual and spiritual connection. Through vivid and engaging dialogue, Plato invites readers to contemplate the nature of love and its profound impact on individuals and society. Symposium remains a timeless philosophical work that continues to inspire discussions on the nature of love, desire, and the pursuit of wisdom.
