商品描述

This book focuses on two central topics that could help us answer how Plato conceives of the physical world and its relationship to Forms. The first one is the Platonic concept of time. What is it, how is it defined, what is it not, and how does it help us describe the changing realities surrounding us? The second one is Plato's understanding of the perceptible world. How is it related to Forms, and how exactly does it work? These are central, wide-ranging, and highly contested questions garnering attention in recent Platonic scholarship.

This book brings together an international team that aims to offer bold, innovative, and thought-provoking answers to these questions. The nine contributions in this book represent a diverse range of starting points, methodologies, and interpretative traditions whose collective aim is to challenge assumptions about Plato's philosophy and help the reader rethink and revisit the Platonic corpus with fresh eyes.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書聚焦於兩個核心主題，這些主題可以幫助我們回答柏拉圖如何看待物質世界及其與形式的關係。第一個是柏拉圖的時間概念。它是什麼？如何定義？它不是什麼？它如何幫助我們描述周遭不斷變化的現實？第二個是柏拉圖對可感知世界的理解。它與形式有何關聯？具體是如何運作的？這些都是近期柏拉圖學術研究中引起廣泛關注的核心、廣泛且具爭議性問題。

本書匯集了一個國際團隊，旨在對這些問題提供大膽、創新且引人深思的答案。本書中的九篇貢獻代表了多樣的出發點、方法論和詮釋傳統，其共同目標是挑戰對柏拉圖哲學的假設，並幫助讀者以全新的視角重新思考和回顧柏拉圖的著作。
