>>Socrates's description of it verging on pornograpy
Pornograpy, the little-known technique of making wine from prostitutes,
is mentioned only in the fragments of Heraclitus, and there only en
passant.
As for Socrates and boys, the connection between eros and learning was
recognized by the ancient Greeks. Guy Davenport takes up the topic in
his essay "Eros, His Intelligence," from _The Hunter Gracchus_, p. 135.
