Enti Inesistenti: phantasmata in Platone

n 18 (september, 2016) • Archai: As Origens do Pensamento Ocidental

Autor: Barbara Botter

Abstract:

One of the debated topics about Plato’s Sophist is the distinction between original and image, more precisely, the
difference among the original, the true and the false image. It’s
only to justify this classification that the philosopher addresses
to the demonstration of not?being and presents, right from the
beginning of the Dialogue, the dualism ‘reality?appearance’. The
aim of the present paper is creating a relationship between the
concepts of not?being and appearance, as they are presented
in the Sophist, to legitimize the existence of beings that are, although they are not real nor true, the phantasmata. This sort of beings is different from the other kind of image, because they
are essentially misleading.
