This paper aims at reconstructing and interpreting Simmel’s vision of love. According to him, love is one of the form that life takes. In this topic Simmel is therefore able to combine the themes of Lebensphilosophie with social reality. Firstly, love makes it possible for two different people to achieve a unity from diversity. That means that love builds sociality by starting from the deepest parts of each individual. It also means that the building of society is the result of a shifting from the individual to the super-individual level. Secondly, Simmel believes that love is a dynamic process transforming both partners. Finally, the different forms (expressions) of love have been evolving: from the Platonic one to the universal one towards humanity, to Christian love, to modern love; in particular, the characters of modern love appear to be more dynamic.
