Description

Are ideas or forms truly conceptualized by Plato as “singular,” as not consisting of parts? Absolutely not! The author shows that besides the relationship of participation to forms, the relation between part and whole constitutes one of the core principles of the theory of ideas. Starting from this finding, the close textual analysis develops an entirely novel interpretation of Plato’s late dialogue, The Sophist.
