«El banquete» is Plato's philosophical dialogue, published by Alhambra Editorial in paperback (148 pages, in Spanish).
A group of friends gathered at a banquet delivers speeches in praise of Eros, the god of love. Socrates' intervention culminates in Diotima's teaching: love is an impulse that leads from sensible beauty to the contemplation of beauty and the good themselves.
It belongs to the collection Clásicos del pensamiento, number 12, with a didactic edition and translation by Jordi Beltrán and Rafael Ojeda.
For philosophy students and readers interested in classical culture and the history of ideas.
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.
