3 of Plato’s writings in one beautiful book.
 
Lysis, or Friendship," "The Symposium," and "Phaedrus" are three Platonic dialogues that explore the philosophical concepts of love (erōs) and friendship (philia), primarily through the character of Socrates. The Lysis examines the nature of friendship and its conditions, the Symposium features a discussion on the nature of Love at a drinking party, and the Phaedrus delves into love, beauty, and rhetoric, often incorporating the philosophical significance of same-sex relationships in ancient Greece. Together, these dialogues offer foundational insights into the multifaceted understanding of love and friendship within Plato's broader philosophical framework.
