Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book delves into the intriguing history of Plato's *Parmenides*, a dialogue that has captivated scholars and philosophers for centuries. The author examines how this complex work was received and interpreted throughout the Middle Ages, tracing its influence on medieval thinkers. The book explores the limited knowledge of *Parmenides* that existed in the Latin West until the 13th century, when the Dominican friar William of Moerbeke translated Proclus' commentary on the dialogue. This translation, along with other works by Proclus, significantly shaped the Western understanding of Plato and his metaphysics. The book then illuminates the indirect influence of *Parmenides* on medieval thought through the writings of Dionysius the Areopagite, a figure who was deeply influenced by Neoplatonic ideas. The author examines the role of Georgius of Trapezunt, a 15th-century humanist scholar who translated *Parmenides* into Latin. This translation was significant because it made the entire dialogue accessible to a wider audience. The book explores Georgius' approach to the text, his personal feuds, and the wider historical context of his work. The book ultimately reveals the lasting influence of *Parmenides* on philosophical and theological discourse, highlighting how this dialogue, through its exploration of the relationship between the One and the Many, continued to spark debate and shape the intellectual landscape of the Middle Ages. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
