Víctima de una obsesión Deanna Raybourn

(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed) It has been said that, after the Bible, Plato's dialogues are the most influential books in Western culture. And of the dialogues, the "Symposium" is the most delightful and accessible, requiring no special knowledge of ancient Greek philosophy or customs. Dramatizing a party in fifth-century B.C. Athens, the deceptively unassuming "Symposium" introduces--in the guise of convivial after-dinner conversation--profound ideas about the nature of love. In "Phaedrus, " here published together with the "Symposium, " Plato discusses the place of eloquence in expounding truth. In both dialogues, Socrates plays the leading role, by turns teasing, arguing, analyzing, joking, inspiring, and cajoling his followers into understanding ideas that have remained central to Western thought through the centuries.
