The Symposium and the Phaedrus are combined here because of their shared theme: a reflection on the nature of erotic love, the love that begins with sexual desire but can transcend that origin and reach even the heights of religious ecstasy. This reflection is carried out explicitly in the speeches and conversations in the dialogues, and implicitly in the dramatic depiction of actions and characters. Thus, the two dialogues deal with a theme of enduring interest and are interesting for both their literary and their philosophical character. 1840791416178 Perpustakaan STTB Bandung Theological Seminary 184 Cob s E08005267 Non Fiction 184 Cob s 46861 2014-12-09 10:16:07 2024-10-25 17:32:24 machine generated
