  • Summary

  • Members explore the question of Agathon's relationship with Socrates as an avenue for understanding Plato's Symposium. This opens up several questions about the nature of dialogue in general as well as this specific dialogue as a means for arriving at the meaning of love in relation to wisdom. Along the way, we have some fun as well and discuss a variety of topics at the intersection of human relationships, psychological dispositions, cognitive training, illumination, transparency, and why the French seem to be so interested in eros.
