Summary

Plato: The Feast or On Love

"For that which is worthy of love is truly beautiful, and tender, and perfect, and blissful; and that which loves has a different character."

At the home of the young poet Agathon, the Athenian intellectual elite gathers to celebrate his victory in a dramatic competition. After a rich meal, the guests begin to compete in praise speeches dedicated to the god of love, Eros. Each participant emphasizes different dimensions of the phenomenon, transforming it from a noble drive towards virtue and heavenly harmony to the glory of beauty and youth, distinguishing between earthly and heavenly love and reminding of the ancient myth about the origin of man.

Plato's dialogue Feast, with its liveliness, sharpness and strong dramatic charge, deserves a special place in the oeuvre of this great philosopher.
