Plato

PLATONISMUS - Pater, Walter: Plato und der Platonismus - Vorlesungen; Jena und Leipzig, Verlegt bei Eugen Diederichs, 1904.
Walter Horatio Pater (* Shadwell 1839, + Oxford 1894) englischer Essayist und Kritiker: Diese Vorlesungen, welche den Inhalt dieses Bandes bilden, habe ich für eine beschränkte Anzahl Studierender der Philosophie niedergeschrieben und übergebe sie nun dem Druck, in der Hoffnung einen weiteren Kreis interessieren zu können. Unter Platonismus verstehe ich keinerlei Neuplatonismus, sondern die Grundprinzipien der Lehre Platos, die ich in engem Zusammenhang mit seiner Persönlichkeit, wie sie in seinen Schriften lebt, zu betrachten bestrebt gewesen bin. // Die literarische Aufarbeitung seiner Vorlesungen über Plato und den Platonismus beschäftigte Pater in den Jahren 1891-92. Es war sein letztes, umfassendes Werk und bedeutete ihm viel. Es war die Vollreife eines jahrelangen Entwicklungsprozesses, ein literarisches Ausleben nach einer gewissen Richtung hin, eines jener großen Gespräche des Geistes mit sich selbst, in denen Pater den Wesenskern der platonischen Dialektik und die bewegende Kraft des neuzeitlichen Essays eerkennt. Mehr noch: Pater, dessen ganzes Schaffen dem Platonismus zugewandt ist, vetraut uns hier eine Lebensharmonie, ein Glaubensbekenntnis an.

Palmer, Michael D.: Names, Reference and Correctness in Plato's "Cratylus". New York, Bern, Frankfurt/M., Paris, 1988. XX, 207 pp. Peter Lang Vlg. 1989. ISBN: 978-0-8204-0708-1
The Cratylus unfolds as a confrontation between competing theses on the question of the correctness of names. Since Plato levels criticism against both theses, we are led to wonder whether Plato himself takes a position on the main issue. Dr. Palmer argues that we can discern in the Cratylus a positive statement of Plato's own views. Plato, unlike many contemporary theorists who follow Frege, does not presuppose that intensional entities such as concepts or meanings mediate the relation between a name and its nominatum. Plato believes that reality divides into discrete, natural units and that names are established, in part, to mark these non-conventional units. Plato holds (or at least assumes) that a name is correct if it successfully (and directly) picks out a real unit or entity, and if it aptly describes its nominatum.

Partenie, Catalin (Editor): Heidegger and Plato: Toward Dialogue, Northwestern University Press, ISBN: 9780810122338
einige Lagerspuren Editorial Reviews\n\nProduct Description\nFor Martin Heidegger the fall of philosophy into metaphysics begins with Plato. Thus, the relationship between the two philosophers is crucial to an understanding of Heidegger--and, perhaps, even to the whole plausibility of postmodern critiques of metaphysics. It is also, as the essays in this volume attest, highly complex, and possibly founded on a questionable understanding of Plato.\n\nAs editors Catalin Partenie and Tom Rockmore remark, a simple way to describe Heidegger's reading of Plato might be to say that what began as an attempt to appropriate Plato (and through him a large portion of Western philosophy) finally ended in an estrangement from both Plato and Western philosophy. The authors of this volume consider Heidegger's thought in relation to Plato before and after the Kehre or turn. In doing so, they take up various central issues in Heidegger's Being and Time (1927) and thereafter, and the questions of hermeneutics, truth, and language. The result is a subtle and multifaceted reinterpretation of Heidegger's position in the tradition of philosophy, and of Plato's role in determining that position.\n\nAbout the Author\nCatalin Partenie is a fellow in the Department of Philosophy, University of Quebec at Montreal. He is editor of Plato: Selected Myths (Oxford, 2004).\n\nTom Rockmore is professor of philosophy at Duquesne University and the author of many books, most recently Marx after Marxism (Blackwell, 2002). He is also co-editor with Daniel Breazeale of New Essays on Fichte's Later Jena Wissenschaftslehre (Northwestern, 2002). , ISBN: 0810122332

It has the charming style of his early writings, yet the arguments reveal a depth and sophistication which is new. In the Thecetetus, Plato is looking afresh at a problem to which, he now realises, he had earlier given an inadequate answer: the problem of the nature of knowledge. What Plato has to say on this question is of great interest and importance, not only to scholars of Plato, but even to philosophers with wholly contemporary interests. This book is a sustained philosophical analysis and critique of the Theaetetus. David Bostock provides a detailed examination of Plato's arguments and the issues that they raise. He adjudicates on rival interpretations of the text, and looks at the relations between the Theaetetus and other works of Plato. The book does not presuppose any knowledge of Greek. It is accessible to undergraduate philosophers, but also has much to offer the Platonic scholar. (Verlagstext). ISBN 9780198239307 - , ISBN: 0198239300
