Platonic love has the following meanings:
1.
2. Pure spiritual love, not physical love.
3. Ideal love view, that is, extremely romantic or impossible love view.
There is only one person in this world. She (he) is perfect for you, and only for you. In other words, everyone has his perfect partner, and there is only one.
People tend to focus only on 2 and 3. In fact, 1 and 4 are the positive solutions of true platonic love. Plato believes that people are in the most real world of ideas before and after death. There, everyone is a complete man and woman, but in this world, we are all divided into two. So people always feel that if they lose something, they are trying to find their "other half". Plato also used this to explain why people have "relationships". In his theory, no half is more important, so men and women are equal. And your original half in the conceptual world is your perfect object. He/she is somewhere in the world and looking for her/him.
There is no other meaning in saying this. I believe in love, and I also realize how powerful this spiritual love is. My love is really a bit like Plato. I believe I am looking for her, but is she my other half? Maybe there will be an answer soon. Everyone wants romantic love. As long as I find her, I am willing to melt her in the romantic ocean ~ ~ ~
Platonism
Plato asked his teacher Socrates: What is love?
So Plato's teacher Socrates took him to the wheat field. Tell Plato to choose the biggest and best ear of wheat from among them, but he can only choose one and can't look back!
Plato thought it was too simple. When he came to the teacher empty-handed, the teacher was surprised to ask him why he came back empty-handed. So Plato told the reason why he returned empty-handed: when he went to the wheat field,
Seeing a seemingly good ear of wheat, I wanted to pick it at first, but then I thought about it: the teacher only allowed me to pick it once, maybe there will be better ones behind! Walking like this, I unconsciously came to the end of the wheat ear field, only to find that I didn't pick a wheat ear in my hand!
So Socrates smiled and said to Plato: This is love! !
I also think love in real life is very similar to this story. What do you think is the definition of love?
Platonic love, also known as Platonic love, is a kind of spiritual love between the opposite sex named after Plato, a western philosopher, who pursues spiritual communication and rejects sensuality. It was first put forward by Marsilio Ficino in15th century. As a synonym of Socrates' love, it is used to refer to the love relationship between Socrates and students.
Plato believes that when the mind abandons the body and yearns for the truth, then thought is the best. When the soul is infected by the sins of the body, people's desire for truth will not be satisfied. When human beings have no strong demand for sensuality, their mood is peaceful. Carnal desire is the expression of animal nature in human nature, and it is also the nature of every creature. People are so-called higher animals because human nature is stronger than animal nature, and spiritual communication is beautiful and moral.
Platonic love has the following meanings:
1. Ideal view of love (metaphor for extremely romantic or impossible view of love)
2. Pure spiritual love, not physical love
3. Love concept of equality between men and women
There is only one person in this world. For you (you), she (he) is perfect and only for you (you). In other words, everyone has his perfect partner, and there is only one.
The first meaning is the most commonly used, but it is actually a misunderstanding. But since everyone uses it this way, it's another meaning. This misunderstanding comes from Plato's masterpiece The Republic. This book discusses how to build an ideal country, because it may be too idealistic to be realized, so some people use it to explain what Platonic love is.
The second meaning is often used, but it is basically a misunderstanding. This misunderstanding comes from Plato's metaphysics. He thinks that what we think is true, and the "real world" we see is not true.
The third and fourth meanings are really Plato's view of love or gender.
Plato believes that people are in the most real conceptual world before and after death, where everyone is a complete man and woman, and in this world we are all divided into two. So people always feel that if they lose something, they will try to find their own "other half" (this word also comes from Plato's theory). Plato also used this to explain why people have "relationships".
In his theory, no half is more important, so men and women are equal. Moreover, the original half of you in the conceptual world is the perfect object for you. He/she is somewhere in the world looking for you/you.
I don't know if this kind of love really exists now, is it really unrealistic or really only exists in fairy tales.
Platonic love
Stand by your lover;
Pay silently and wait silently;
Don't expect to be close, and don't pray for possession;
Even though I knew it wouldn't work out at all,
But still stubborn, that's why you don't expect anything in return.
Destined its tragic ending;
finally
Can only be parallel lines waiting in the distance;
Leaving only beautiful fragments in memory,
As eternity! !
The core of Plato's philosophy is idealism. In his view, the only real world is the eternal conceptual world, and the real world people feel is only a reflection of the conceptual world. Plato called things and general things beyond independence and people's understanding ideas, and thought that only ideas were true, because they constituted an objective and independent world of ideas, such as goodness itself, beauty itself and justice itself. Later, people called the pursuit of pure spirit "Platonic behavior"
Gothic architecture is a form after Romanesque architecture. If you look at the Cologne Cathedral in Germany (which was often shown on TV during the World Cup), the main improvement is the use of flying tickets and arch tickets. The circular arch was changed into a pointed arch, which made the church very high. From the inside, this height is terrible. At the same time, glass paintings are inlaid, and light passes through them ... it's magnificent and mysterious anyway.
The so-called Gothic movies are much shorter than Gothic architecture (which prevailed in the Middle Ages). This "Goth" is neither the other nor the other. In fact, it represents a horrible and mysterious style. /kloc-In the 8th century, the English writer horace Walpole wrote "The Castle of Otranto" in a horrible and mysterious style. Later, novels with similar styles became popular and people called them Gothic novels. Since then, the meaning of Goth has been extended. There are gothic novels, gothic movies, gothic music, gothic costumes and so on, which mostly belong to this style.
The reference material is a picture of Cologne Cathedral, which is a bit scary at night. Perhaps this is why people call walpole's novels "Gothic".
