Bilingual collection. This free stroll in the Athenian countryside is one of Plato's most literary seductive texts, and it is also one of those whose philosophical interpretation raises the most questions. Starting from a discourse on love, Plato makes all the facets of his chosen object shimmer: the love of discourses and the discourses of love, the love that responds or does not respond to love, and the discourse that responds or does not respond to the discourse. In this dialogue outside the walls, where we feel the presence of bodies, where the heat, the thirst, the shade, the song of the cicadas and the breath of the wind are palpable, Plato is a poet, that is to say, "a light, winged, sacred thing."
