The dialogue explores the philosophical debate between hedonism and the pursuit of higher pleasures. Socrates engages with Protarchus, who defends the hedonistic viewpoint of Philebus, yet Socrates argues for a balanced life that harmonizes both physical and intellectual pleasures. Through this discussion, the text delves into the nature of happiness and the complexities of human fulfillment, ultimately questioning what constitutes the best life.
