Fakta

Symposium is a philosophical text written by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, believed to have been composed in the late 4th century BCE. The book is a dialogue between a group of distinguished Athenians, who have gathered together to discuss the nature of love and beauty.

The dialogue takes place during a symposium, or dinner party, hosted by the tragedian Agathon. The guests, including Socrates, Aristophanes, and Alcibiades, take turns giving speeches in praise of love, each offering their own unique perspective on the subject.

Throughout the text, Plato explores the nature of love and its role in human life, examining the ways in which it can inspire us to reach for greater heights of knowledge and understanding, while also causing us great pain and suffering. The speeches given by the various characters in the text are rich with symbolism and metaphor, and offer a wide range of interpretations and insights into the nature of love.

At its core, Symposium is a meditation on the human condition, and the ways in which we grapple with our own mortality and the limitations of our existence. Through its exploration of love and beauty, the book offers a profound reflection on the nature of human experience, and the search for meaning and purpose in our lives.
