This article offers a reading of a classical work from Antiquity, known as The banquet of the wise men (Deipnosophistai), by Athenaeus of Naucratis, with the intention of analyzing the countless references by its characters, some of which are of real historical existence, to the educational aspects of the ancient Greek banquets and symposia, with the purpose of briefly analyzing the mechanisms of ritualized social intercourse with the philosophers, instituted by the ancient Greeks for the socialization and education of their young people.
