Lysis (Platon Werke)

Plato's dialogues are often more conversational and reflective. I'm curious how this format influences the reader's understanding of friendship compared to straightforward exposition.

Despite being over two millennia old, the ideas about what makes a true friend or love resonated with me. Has this dialogue changed how others think about their relationships?

I wonder whether understanding the ancient Greek setting enhances or complicates the timelessness of its lessons on friendship and virtue.
