This Planeta edition presents two of Plato's most important dialogues: 'The Symposium' (or 'On Love'), a dialogue about love in a festive context, and 'Phaedo' (or 'On the Soul'), which narrates the last moments of Socrates and deals with the immortality of the soul. Both texts are fundamental to understanding Platonic philosophy and its influence on Western culture.
Plato was an ancient Greek philosopher of Classical Athens who is most commonly considered the foundational thinker of the Western philosophical tradition. An innovator of the literary dialogue and dialectic forms, Plato influenced all the major areas of theoretical philosophy and practical philosophy, and was the founder of the Academy, a philosophical school in Athens where Plato taught the collection of philosophical theories that would later become known as Platonism.
