内容简介

《会饮篇》（或译作《飨宴篇》、《宴话篇》， 英语：The Symposium ，古希腊语：Συμπόσιον ） ，作者：柏拉图。这篇对话所描写的是悲剧家阿伽松为了庆祝自己的剧本获奖，邀请了几位朋友到家中会饮、交谈。参加者有修辞学家斐德罗、喜剧家阿里斯托芬、哲学家苏格拉底等人。整篇对话主要由六篇对爱神厄洛斯的颂辞组成。

《会饮篇》是古希腊哲学家柏拉图的一篇对话式作品，在前385年后不久写成。它是一段关于对爱的本质的作品，以演讲和对话的形式写成，既有讽刺式的，也有认真的。

In his celebrated masterpiece, Symposium, Plato imagines a high-society dinner-party in Athens in 416 BC at which the guests - including the comic poet Aristophanes and, of course, Plato's mentor Socrates - each deliver a short speech in praise of love. The sequence of dazzling speeches culminates in Socrates' famous account of the views of Diotima, a prophetess who taught him that love is our means of trying to attain goodness. And then into the party

bursts the drunken Alcibiades, the most popular and notorious Athenian of the time, who insists on praising Socrates himself rather than love, and gives us a brilliant sketch of this enigmatic character.

The power, humour, and pathos of Plato's creation engages the reader on every page. This new translation is complemented by full explanatory notes and an illuminating introduction.

柏拉图（Plato）在他著名的杰作《专题讨论会（Symposium）》中，想象着公元前416年在雅典举行的一场上流社会的晚宴，包括喜剧诗人Aristophanes在内的宾客，当然还有柏拉图的导师苏格拉底（Socrates）都发表简短的演讲以赞美爱情。令人眼花speech乱的演讲顺序最终以苏格拉底对Diotima观点的著名叙述而告终，Diotima是一位先知，他教他爱是我们寻求善良的手段。随后进入聚会的是醉酒的Alcibiades，他是当时流行，最臭名昭著的雅典人，他坚持称赞苏格拉底本人而不是称赞爱人，并给了我们这个神秘人物的绝妙素描。

柏拉图创作的力量，幽默和悲情吸引了每一页读者。这个新的翻译以完整的解释性注释和具有启发性的介绍作为补充。
