THE ROLE OF REASON IN PLATO’S PHILOSOPHY

  • A. Domanski University of the Witwatersrand

Abstract

The world of the Platonic teaching is a realm of changelessness for a heart saddened by the spectacle of inevitable change. It is order for a mind perturbed by a nightmare of endless chaos. It is the cosmos of reason, of which one may have a glimpse in anything of beauty ... It is the pattern which the mind of man may come to know ... (Edman 1927: xxxviii)
