Boka ar blant mine favoritter grunnet dens uovertruffede ugjennomtrengelighet! Jeg har til og med lært meg hovedkonklusjonen utenat:
Parmenides: Hva enten det Ene er eller ikke er, så vil det selv, og det Andre - både i forhold til seg selv, og hverandre - være såvel som ikke være, og forespeile å være såvel som ikke forespeile å være, alt, på alle måter.
Sokrates: Høyst sant og riktig! (

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 094105196X, Paperback)

This is an English translation of one of the more challenging and enigmatic of Plato's dialogues between Socrates and Parmenides and Zeno of Elea, that begins with Zeno defending his treatise of Parmenidean monism against those partisans of plurality.

Focus Philosophical Library translations are close to and are non-interpretative of the original text, with the notes and a glossary intending to provide the reader with some sense of the terms and the concepts as they were understood by Plato’s immediate audience.
