Plato's Dialectic at Play: Argument, Structure, and Myth in the Symposium
Corrigan, Kevin (Emory)
By uncovering the structural design of the dialogue, "The Symposium", this work aims at revealing a Plato for whom the dialogical form was not merely ornamentation or philosophical methodology, but the essence of philosophical exploration. His dialectic is not only argument; it is also play.
