Jung is quoted, and 'modern depth psychology' referred to, on p. 61.
Transl. from the German by Richarad and Clara Winston
'Plato's famous dialogue, the Phaedrus, was variously subtitled in antiquity: "On Beauty," 'On Love," "On the Psyche.' It is also concerned with the art of rhetoric, of thought and communication....an illuminating and stimulating interpretation of the dialogue....concentrates on the content, bringing the actual situation in the dialogue--Athens and its intellectuals engaged in spirited debate--alive.'
