Faidros (Biblioteka Klasyków Filozofii)

The dialogue discusses love as a divine madness and a means of spiritual ascent. I'm curious how this ancient perspective resonates today or differs from contemporary views.

This setup adds a layer of intimacy and immediacy to the philosophical debates. I wonder if Plato intended it to reflect real conversations or serve a literary purpose.

Plato's critique of rhetoric as persuasion versus truth made me think about current political speeches and media. How do others interpret his views on ethical persuasion?
