Ὦ Φαληρεύς: Plato, Symp. 172a
Abstract
Scholarly efforts to detect playfulness in the address to Apollodorus at Pl. Symp. 172a are reviewed and found unsatisfactory. In keeping with the dialogue’s erotic theme and comic spirit, a small supplemental emendation of the address’s Φαληρεύς is proposed to effect a phallic mock-demotic à la Aristophanes, Φαλ<λ>ηρεύς.
