{"product_id":"parmenides-and-platos-late-philosophy","title":"Parmenides and Plato's Late Philosophy","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom antiquity, Plato's \u003cem\u003eParmenides\u003c\/em\u003e has been considered an enigma. In this book Robert Turnbull offers a translation and explanation of the \u003cem\u003eParmenides\u003c\/em\u003e, using his interpretation to illuminate Plato's major late dialogues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurnbull claims that in the \u003cem\u003eParmenides\u003c\/em\u003e Plato abandoned the earlier Phaedo account of form-participation, and instead worked out the metaphysics of form-participation and mathematics that grounds the framework of his late philosophy. Relying on the testimony of Aristotle, Euclid, and Plotinus, and rejecting most modern accounts, Turnbull finds in the \u003cem\u003eParmenides\u003c\/em\u003e a radical departure that that clarifies and illuminates Plato's mature Pythagoreanism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUntil now there has been no standard modern interpretation of the \u003cem\u003eParmenides\u003c\/em\u003e or of Plato's late dialogues. Professor Turnbull's book, with its meticulous translation and careful analysis, could well become that standard interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":54228934066520,"sku":"9780802042361","price":67.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780802042361__67af1c3032461.jpg?v=1741135513","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/parmenides-and-platos-late-philosophy","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
