Apology of Socrates-Plato (Πλάτων)

The "Apology of Socrates" by Plato presents a powerful defense of the philosopher Socrates as he stands trial for corrupting the youth and impiety. Through Socrates’ eloquent words, listeners are invited to contemplate the nature of justice, the quest for truth, and the importance of living a virtuous life. This enduring work challenges us to reflect on our own beliefs and the consequences of standing up for them, making it as relevant today as it was in ancient Athens. The themes of integrity and the pursuit of wisdom resonate deeply in modern society, encouraging listeners to engage in self-examination and the relentless search for knowledge.

Aspects Of Love - An Anthology by William Shakespeare Lina Aspects Of Love is an anthology of poetic explorations on the theme of erotic love - though one of the "poets" represented here is better known, even than as a dramatist, as the philosopher, Plato. His Symposium heads off this set of erotic explorations. In The Symposium's philosophic play, he depicts a scene of men cosing together over dinner, each describing what he finds in his experience of love. I have followed this pattern in the choice of works for this anthology - in a similar manner, each of these works deals in a radically different way with the discovery of love. Whether philandering or married, heterosexual, lesbian or gay, under cover of friendship or as flagrant delight, from Plato through Donne, Whitman, Shakespeare or Sappho. we will not cease from exploration till we reach at last, as The Symposium does, a vision of the union of love as a discovery of the Divine. Surely there must be something here for everyone. - Summary by Tony Addison Unwritten Earths Symposium Unwritten Earths Symposium Welcome to the Unwritten Earths Symposium!
