Abstract

The Essay outlines Luigi Stefanini’s philosophical work (1891-1956), by showing how his Platonic exegesis, the aspect for which the author is best known, was developed by him into an original philosophical conception and a corresponding educational theory that has as its inspirational centre the vital unity of the human soul, brilliantly described in Plato’s Symposium.
