Exploring Love through Philosophy and Consumerism
This chapter examines the complex nature of love as illustrated in Plato's Symposium, with a focus on concepts such as 'eros' and 'amor.' It contrasts ancient philosophical ideas about connection and fulfillment with contemporary consumer behaviors that reflect feelings of loneliness and longing for deeper bonds. By highlighting the significance of true friendship and intellectual connections, the discussion seeks to redefine love beyond superficial romantic ideals.
