Диалози #1

Диалози, т. I

Rate this book
Платон (ок. 427 � ок. 347 г. пр.н.е.) е древногръцки философ, математик, автор на философски диалози и основател на Атинската академия � първата известна институция за висше образование в Европа. Наред със своя учител Сократ и ученика си Аристотел, Платон поставя основите на Западната философия и Естествената философия.

Най-хубавата характеристика за личността на Платон ни дават неговите съчинения, които благодарение на дълговременното им използване и умножение, преписвани в Академията, са достигнали до нас в своята пълнота. Те представляват високо-художествени произведения, написани под формата на драматичен разговор между две или повече лица. Затова и носят името "диалози" � творби, в които чрез устата на Сократ, в спор с ред други реални или измислени личности, Платон ни задължава да мислим. Може би това задължение е накарало Хегел да напише, че "един от най-красивите подаръци, които съдбата ни е запазила от древността, са без съмнение произведенията на Платон", а Уайтхед да отбележи, че "цялата наша философия не е нищо друго, освен забележки под линия на Платоновите диалози".

Том 1 съдържа диалозите "Апология", "Критон", "Евтифрон", "Малкият Хипий", "Ион", "Големият Хипий", "Алкивиад", "Хармид", "Лахет", "Лизис" и "Протагор".

Plato (Greek: ΠλάτӬν), born Aristocles (c.�427 � 348 BC), was an ancient Greek philosopher of the Classical period who is considered a foundational thinker in Western philosophy and an innovator of the written dialogue and dialectic forms. He raised problems for what became all the major areas of both theoretical philosophy and practical philosophy, and was the founder of the Platonic Academy, a philosophical school in Athens where Plato taught the doctrines that would later become known as Platonism.
Plato's most famous contribution is the theory of forms (or ideas), which has been interpreted as advancing a solution to what is now known as the problem of universals. He was decisively influenced by the pre-Socratic thinkers Pythagoras, Heraclitus, and Parmenides, although much of what is known about them is derived from Plato himself.
Along with his teacher Socrates, and Aristotle, his student, Plato is a central figure in the history of philosophy. Plato's entire body of work is believed to have survived intact for over 2,400 years—unlike that of nearly all of his contemporaries. Although their popularity has fluctuated, they have consistently been read and studied through the ages. Through Neoplatonism, he also greatly influenced both Christian and Islamic philosophy. In modern times, Alfred North Whitehead famously said: "the safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato."

While the premise was intriguing, I felt that the pacing was a bit too slow for my liking. The middle section dragged on, but the strong character development kept me reading. Overall, it’s a good book, but it could have been more concise.
