“Seven speeches about love, each more sophisticated than the last. The Symposium is the most immediately pleasurable of the Platonic dialogues — short, dramatically alive, and culminating in Diotima's account of philosophical eros that redefines what love is aiming at. The move from physical beauty to the Form of Beauty is Platonism in its clearest form.”
