Dialectics, a cartographic depiction of ideas?
Keywords:
Ideas, Perspectivism, Ontology, the SophistAbstract
In dialogue with important papers on Plato’s work, this article intends to establish that the method used in the Sophist by the Stranger from Elea, that of Division, is able to draw or to make more visible some kinds of ontological relations among Forms, or the intelligible Ideas. For this reason, something like an “ontological map” needs to be made; but every map, although its aim is neutrality, is always drawn from a given point of view – a perspective.
