Description	At the very beginning of the history of philosophy we find Socrates saying that the only thing he really knows is love. Nevertheless scholars remain unclear about exactly what knowledge of love Socrates was claiming to possess, and what its role was in the philosopher's life and thought. In this paper I draw upon the Lysis, Symposium and Phaedrus to identify the object of Socrates' love and the rationale for his endorsement of a curiously modified traditional pederasty. In the first section I show that the object of Socrates' love cannot be identified with the objects of the desires instantiated in the individual parts of the soul. In section two, I go on to show that Socrates loves the other as a divine being and that his love involves both needy love and gift love. In the final section I try to show that, in the strongest sense of eros, the object of Socrates' love is love itself.
