This book captures the drama of the first ever conversation between the young Alcibiades and his lover Socrates the philosopher. The Platonic dialogue about self-knowledge brilliantly blends the erotic, religious, and educational traits of Socrates, a combination widely acknowledged by interpreters of late antiquity but often ignored by modern scholars.
