Abstract

The A. points out the inadequacy of the current interpretation, which sees Aristophanes depicted in the Symposium as a bomolochos, and shows and emphasizes the subtle skill displayed by Plato, who does not forges a wholly false character but cleverly exploits, by means of selective and recognizable allusions, authentic features of Aristophanes’ artistic personality.
