Discourses in praise of Eros, translated as love, are spoken by Socrates and other Athenians at a banquet hosted by Agathon. Love is seen as an aspect of the divine running through all nature and being; and regarded as the source of all creation, virtue and wisdom.

This edition of The Apology is the translation into English from the original Greek by Professor Benjamin Jowett from the third edition of The Dialogues of Plato published in five volumes by Oxford University Press in 1892. Jowett's translation of Plato is a reference in English literature and an artistic achievement in it's own right, preserving in beautiful English the spirit and the direct, clear and elevated style of Plato's writing.
