Friends, Aristotle in Physics Book IV 209b (Hardie and Gaye trans.) says: "Plato of course, if we may digress, ought to tell us why the form and the numbers...
Dear Robert, Perhaps, Aristotle referres to a strong sense of participation. For him, if we state that the things participate to upper principles, we also have...
... Well, maybe. But my problem is that I cannot link what I read in Physics with any text in Timaeus. I have searched the texts I have available for the...
Might the word you are looking for be meteXonta, used in Rep. 5, 476d, to distinguish between beauty itself and *things that participate* in it? I'm with you...

Dear Robert, I deeply agree with your lack of confidence to Aristotle's interpretation of Plato. But this confidence cannot expelled the fact that Aristotle...

Dear all, A new member here, from Istanbul. I have started conducting a reading-study group on some Platonic dialogues. After going on some ways with Ion, we...

I am terribly sorry about the last message. I was trying to forward your message to one of the friends in the Plato group I had mentioned (about which I will...
Iskender, Thanks for the clarification! But I wonder, how did you reach Beversluis electronically? I'm curious, although I have the (real!) book from our...
Iskender, I see that the jannas website no longer has her "What are Plato’s “Middle” Dialogues in the Middle Of?" available for download. A year or so...

Bob, have you ever looked at this? J J Mulhern: "Two Interpretive Fallacies," Systematics 9, 1971, 168-72. The two fallacies Mulhern identifies and discusses...
