Plot
This great treatise is considered the most influential philosophical work coming out of the Italian Rennaissance.

Edward S. Casey writes, "Ficino argues for the divinity of love while being equally alert to it's daemonic dimentions. Along the way, he offers delightful insights into the actual practice of love. Sears Jayne's lucid translation brings into elegant English the tenor of the amazing opus on the soul and spirit and body of love."

Second Revised edition, with an extraordinarily rich bibliographical appendix covering the literature in many languages pertaining to this work and its influence.
