Symposium

At a banquet in Athens, the physician Eryximachus invites each guest, including the philosopher Socrates, to speak in turn about the nature of love and desire. Each one offers his own view, revealing different facets of this complex feeling. Through these exchanges, a deep reflection takes shape on beauty, the soul and the search for truth. The dialogue combines philosophical thought with a poetic dimension. The author offers a founding work that questions the meaning of human relationships and of knowledge.
