1)What is Socrates' account of love, explain it.
2) how to describe the ladder of love (i.e., the ascent to the beautiful) and what role(s) love is paying in this ascent
3) how to explain Socrates' argument for why we should attempt to make this ascent. (If you think that there are multiple arguments, choose one on which to focus.)
4) what do you think is the most serious objection to Socrates' argument? you find this objection persuasive or not.
