Courage
Clearly I'll have to read this again. I suspect God kills a kitten every time Theaetetus says "clearly" "definitely," "of course." BECAUSE NONE OF THAT IS CLEAR AT ALL.
I became interested in Sophist through Heidegger. I've read a bunch of Plato's dialogues before, I can't remember which, I read them without any guide ' they impressed me as mildly amusing, beyond that it's completely mysterious to me how anyone can walk away with any sort of certainty, or conclusion. Plato always leaves me feeling "trolled."
The "nice" (?) thing about reading backwards from modern "signposts" is that I get to appreciate other people's interpretive efforts. I don't think I could have taken this dialogue very seirously if I didn't know it inspired so many generations of philosophers, and now I'm burning with desire to read Heidegger's lecture on Sophist, and his investigation of "beings, even though I'll have to learn to read Greek first.
And I suspect that's the whole point ' not to indoctrinate readers with any kind of solidified "knowledge," but to inspire more dialogues, investigations, contemplations.
I don't usually rate books I don't understand, but I think, for the psychological effect it created ' bafflement commingled with desires to dig deeper ' it's justifiable to give it âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸âï¸ .
