Summary
Plato's Symposium is one of the top creations of the ancient Greek and human spirit in general. With its interest in the subject at the heart of its concern, its richness of content and its artistic form (as thought and reason are interwoven in a stunning unity, perhaps more than in any other philosophical writing), it has won the recognition and admiration of people of genuine intellectual interests and emotional sensitivity. At the same time it has been a constant challenge, even from antiquity, for philosophers and philologists to turn to a multifaceted and in-depth study of the work: they have identified the problems of understanding and tried to provide satisfactory answers. I shall attempt to give a concise account of the results of the philological and philosophical research of the Symposium in the book that follows, beginning with the very useful, always useful, onomatopoeic visitation, concerning the title of the Platonic work.
