Plato's Symposium, written in the early part of the 4th century BC, is set at a drinking party (symposium) attended by some of the leading intellectuals of the day, including Aristophanes, the comic dramatist, Socrates, Plato's mentor, and Alcibiades, the brilliant but (eventually) treacherous politician. Each guest gives a speech in praise of the benefits of desire and its role in the good and happy human life. At the core of the work stands Socrates' praise of philosophical desire, and an argument for the superiority of the philosophical life as the best route to happiness. This edition provides an accessible and engaging new translation by M. C. Howatson, and a substantial introduction, by Frisbee Sheffield, which guides the reader through the various parts of the dialogue and reflects on its central arguments. A chronology and detailed notes on the participants help to set this enduring work in context.

评分在古希腊世界,城邦和哲学始终处于一种张力之中,苏格拉底一生的经历就是这种张力的集中体现。雅典民主政治审判并处死苏格拉底的理由在于他的两大罪状:第一,不信城邦的神并引进新神;第二,败坏青年。而“败坏青年”之罪,很可能是导致苏格拉底最终被判死刑的实质性原因。 关...
评分1.首先,柏拉图对于这场会饮的描述,不是直接叙述,而是经阿波罗陀若和他的朋友的对话展开的。阿波罗陀若的朋友向他打听那天夜里这场会饮到底说了什么内容——这不是孤例,因为当时苏格拉底已经死了,阿尔基弼亚德也已经逃亡,所以人们对那天晚上到底发生了什么非常好奇。 因此...
