Example of The Dialogue

Dialogue is the exchange of ideas or messages between two or more people; characterized by the so-called speech circuit:

Sender - Message - Listener; Listener - Message - Sender.
In spoken language, this exchange takes place through the spoken word, while in written language This exchange is expressed by indicating the moments in which each interlocutor takes his turn and the message that each express. It is a resource that is used in all kinds of writings, stories, novels, poetry, and even in popular science works.
As a literary genre, the dialogue arises with the writings of Plato, the first and most famous being: Phaedo, Gorgias, Protagoras, the Banquet; in which all the exposition of own and contrary ideas is exposed as a dialogue between two or more people, where each one expresses her point of view. This genre continued to be cultivated in Greece and Rome and in some modern writings. In the genre of dialogue, each interlocution is preceded by the name of the character; in dialogues within other genres, the exchange may be preceded by hyphens and the indication at the end, or in the middle of the dialogues.

10 dialogue examples:

1. Fragment of "Critias", from Plato's dialogues:
SOCRATES: Certainly, Critias, we will grant his request, and we will grant Hermocrates in advance, as well as you and Timaeus; I have no doubt that when his turn comes in a little while, he will make the same request that you have made. In order then, that he can provide himself a new beginning, and not be compelled to say the same things once his own is finished, let him understand that the indulgence is already granted in advance to he. And now, friend Critias, I will announce to you the judgment of the theater. They are of the opinion that the latter performer was wonderfully successful, and that you will need a lot of indulgence before he can take his place.
HERMOCRATES: The warning, Socrates, that you have addressed, must also reach me. But remember, Critias, that a weak heart has never won a trophy; and for this you must face the argument as a man. First invoke Apollo and the Muses, and then let us hear him sound the praises and display the virtues of the ancient citizens.
CRITIAS: Friend Hermocrates, you, who are placed last and have another in front of you, have not lost your heart yet; the seriousness of the situation will promptly be disclosed to you; meanwhile, I accept his exhortations and encouragement. But in addition to the gods and goddesses you mentioned, I would especially invoke Mnemosyne; Well, for all the important part of my speech I depend on your favor, and if I can collect, and recite enough what was said by the priests and brought by Solon, I do not doubt that I will satisfy the demands of this audience. And now, there being no more excuse, I will proceed.
