{"product_id":"lysis","title":"Lysis.","description":"\u003cp\u003eBilingual collection. Young adolescents question Socrates: what exactly is love? How should we conquer the one we love and get them to love us in return? To this amorous, erotic question, Socrates gives a somewhat roundabout answer: we must, he says, first inquire about the definition of friendship (philia). Lysis is indeed the first philosophical treatise to firmly establish the ethical importance of friendship; it is also the one that seems to deprive the friendly relationship of its autonomy and intimacy. Far from being simply a relationship of mutual affection, free from any calculation of interest, friendship according to Plato is a non-reciprocal and interested desire. This is because there is something in the beloved that we desire for ourselves, something that we wish to appropriate and that pushes us towards them: the good. This is the equivocal lesson of the Lysis: there is an advantageous use of the beloved, and friendship is a transformation of the self.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antinoë","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39835412922552,"sku":"3586","price":7.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/4043\/6408\/products\/003585064.jpg?v=1623061207","url":"https:\/\/anttopinoe.com\/en-en\/products\/lysis","provider":"Antinoë","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
