Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aristotle's Criticisms of Plato The tentative tone of both of these passages would be quite unintelligible had Aristotle believed in the identity of 'the unlimited' in sensibles with 'the unlimited in Ideas. Consequently when in Phys. Iii. We read that Plato's dweipov 'existed both in the world of sense and in the Ideas', there is no reason to conclude that this c'tvmpov is for both numerically the same. In Met. A. 6. 988 a 10, Aristotle states that the Ideas result from two causes: formal 2v, material - the Great and the Small. Pheno mena also arise from two causes: formal - the Ideas, material - the Great and the Small. Now, were the material cause identical for both Idea and phenomenon, this passage would mean that the Ideas, which determine the great-and-small, are yet themselves partly the result of that great-and-small, a contradiction which there is as little reason for attributing to Aristotle as to Plato.

Download or read book Plato The Man and His Work RLE Plato written by A.E. Taylor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an introduction to Plato’s work that gives a clear statement of what Plato has to say about the problems of thought and life. In particular, it tells the reader just what Plato says, and makes no attempt to force a system on the Platonic text or to trim Plato’s works to suit contemporary philosophical tastes. The author also gives an account that has historical fidelity - we cannot really understand the Republic or the Gorgias if we forget that the Athens of the conversations is meant to be the Athens of Nicias or Cleon, not the very different Athens of Plato’s own manhood. To understand Plato’s thought we must see it in the right historical perspective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nicomachean Ethics of Aristotle This edition is substantially the same as the first, though a great many slight alterations have been made. I have to thank my reviewers in general, and in particular Mr. J. A. Stewart of Christ Church (who reviewed the first edition in Mind, July, for much kindly criticism and many valuable suggestions. Where their suggestions have not been adopted, I trust they will believe that my persistence is due neither to carelessness nor to unwillingness to learn, but to the fact that after full consideration I find myself unable to agree with them. An Introduction, promised in the Preface to the first edition, is, I regret to say, not yet finished; but I still hope to publish it before long.

Download or read book The Theaetetus of Plato written by Benjamin Hall Kennedy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theaetetus of Plato: With Translation and Notes I. The dialogues of Plato, which I 'chose, from time to time, for the school work of my Sixth Form, were chiefly the Protagoras, the Euthydemus, and the Hippias Major; since this last, if not Platonic, is very amusing and instructive. But\ I' seldom allowed any of my foremost boys to leave school without reading with them privately in the evenings the Theaetetus also, as the best preparative for their deeper study of Plato and of Greek philosophy in general: often adding to it the earlier books (1 - 4) of Aristotle's Ethics. In the past year, 1880, I took it for the sub ject of my Cambridge Lectures, reading a translation to my class, and commenting as occasion required. This was executed in the first instance quite indepen dently, without reference to Professor Jowett's ver sion; but in revising my translation for the press I have compared the two, with frequent advantage, as might be expected, to the correction of my own work. Still the result is, that I have generally departed less widely from the literal Greek than my confrere in the Sister University: and the reason of this is evident.

Download or read book Aristotle s Dialogue with Socrates written by Ronna Burger and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the good life for a human being? Aristotle’s exploration of this question in the Nicomachean Ethics has established it as a founding work of Western philosophy, though its teachings have long puzzled readers and provoked spirited discussion. Adopting a radically new point of view, Ronna Burger deciphers some of the most perplexing conundrums of this influential treatise by approaching it as Aristotle’s dialogue with the Platonic Socrates. Tracing the argument of the Ethics as it emerges through that approach, Burger’s careful reading shows how Aristotle represents ethical virtue from the perspective of those devoted to it while standing back to examine its assumptions and implications. “This is the best book I have read on Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics. It is so well crafted that reading it is like reading the Ethics itself, in that it provides an education in ethical matters that does justice to all sides of the issues.”—Mary P. Nichols, Baylor University

Download or read book Socrates and Plato written by G. C. Field and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Socrates and Plato: A Criticism of Professor A. E. Taylor's 'Varia Socratica' Professor A. E. Taylor, in his book, Varia Socratira, and Professor Burnet, in the introduction to his recent edition of the Phaedo, have challenged the traditional view of the character and teaching of Socrates and his relation to Plato. The view which they attack has been long held in England (though not abroad) almost without question. But the support of two such names must lend great weight to the opposite side, and makes it incumbent on those who still hold to the traditional view to produce strong arguments for their belief. The present paper is a modest attempt in this direction. It makes no claim to be based on original research or to put forward original opinions. The evidence which it contains is familiar to all who have studied the subject. But it has seemed worth while to collect it together in a compendious form, that its strength may be better realised. Nor is it claimed that all the evidence on the whole question has been examined. It is only the witnesses for the defence, the evidence on one side of the question that is here put forward. Whether it outweighs the testimony which the two skilled advocates on the other side have collected is a matter for the jury of those interested in the question. But the case at least ought not to be allowed to go by default. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
