Preamble
L 'A is a negation of diversity? But when he preaches the concept of a multiply: if you do not preach at all would be one, if I speak of is already more than one, is already two. The following is added, so the concept of being. Last Plato: One is to be just because I preach: I affirm and deny the same time. Ideas are not next to each other, but if the berth interact and collide. This is the new meaning of dialectics, which designates more than just a method of investigation: the structure of reality becomes
The Myth is the "other"
And now let's look at some of Plato's dialogues in which characters appear and times "others" around which the anthropologist questions: Diotima, the priestess of Mantinea, Er and his legend, the Stranger from Elea to Athens where the philosopher speaks in politician. are all traces of the man who questioned the man who "goes" as the cultural model of membership provides. Encoder and the decoder of the world. In this model this is lived by the Athenian philosopher, and then the culture and history. In this regard, it would be interesting to see where it comes from Plato's doctrine of ideas. The level of anthropological analysis is different, I know, from that of the philosopher. But they may interact to better understand the history of Western thought. Franco Trabattoni proposes an evolutionary not work dell'ateniese. The dialogues of maturity, and Republic Phaedo, for example, should not be seen in contrast with what the philosopher wrote in the period of old age. The doctrine of Ideas is, ultimately, a provocation of the dialectic between the sub-lunar world and the moon. What matters is the dialectic, indeed, in its Trabattoni writes about the second navigation Phaedo, the logoi namely the speeches in the freedom of those who defines, communicates and does, well, science in Antiquity
go to order
is the priestess Diotima teaches Socrates that the things in love. 'As we see in Symposium which speaks of Eros. Here Diotima explains because love is the desire of beauty. From his father porros, Eros inherits the tension towards the beauty and the desire to possess it, while the mother takes poena the absence, her being barefoot. Eros is abandoned and homeless sleeping, is a demon that makes the 'man philosopher. Diotima defines a route that starts from the initiation earthly beauty to arrive at the vision of beauty in itself: the beauty of a single body to rise to the beauty of all the beautiful bodies and finally alI'idea the Beautiful.
Where is the Homeland?
The stranger from Elea's home elsewhere, and traces of a source, but no longer accessible. The Stranger destroys Elea, home and stands on the brink of a new world which he himself brought to light. All my life belongs to Elea Elea, an alien is that there is more.
interpretation of the myth of Er
The Myth of Er appears at the end of Republic. Here Plato shows that metempsychosis makes almost all sentences temporary: the souls, after a thousand years of expiation or reward in the afterlife, they return to live and have the option of "wise men" indefinitely. Er is back from the dead to refer to his story. the daimon does not happen in fate, but is the subject of a choice. Freedom of choice makes free souls. It was not so in traditional morality, if this was the prerogative of an established power. Metempsychosis, in Plato, is an empowering together, the case that determines the order of choice is not decisive, because the paradigms of life are more numerous than the anime. The return of Er from the dead is a powerful image: the reality exists only insofar as it is alive and striving for the best. We exist in a fully only if we make our own choices.
Epilogue
We met with the Homeland Er, his nostalgia and myth that is still lost space. And then, the desire for beauty, love and the power of those who experimented with the "foreign" to Mantinea, Diotima. It is continued with Er, the world of the dead, but the "resurrection". Man wants to be free, says using the Plato dialogues and myths invented by himself. The human remains fully human target "the good life."
