The banquet is the “Platonic” dialogue that includes various forms of art, literature, and philosophy. However, it is the least difficult dialogue from a philosophical standpoint, as Plato the philosopher did not prevail over Plato the poet in it. Its topic is an important one It was placed in a breathtaking framework of the social life of Athens, with a wonderful depiction of the character of Socrates, and the personalities of those who participated with him in the dialogue, including prominent names in the world of poetry and literature, such as Aristophanes and Agathon, and in the world of politics, such as Alcibiades. These elements are a wonderful artistic blend |
