|---|---|
| THE COURSE WILL DEAL WITH TWO OF THE SO-CALLED "DIALECTIC DIALOGUES" OF PLATO, I.E. THE "SOPHIST" AND THE "STATESMAN". IN PARTICULAR WE WILL CONSIDER HOW PLATO ARTICULATES THE NATURE AND THE STRUCTURE OF INTELLIGIBILE REALITY AND HOW THIS STRUCTURE IS STRICTLY CONNECTED TO HIS POLITICAL REFLECTION. FURTHERMORE PLATO'S CONCEPTION OF BEING AS AN INTRINSICALLY RELATIONAL, LIVING, ALIVE AND VIABLE REALITY WILL BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION. |
| Teaching Methods | |
|---|---|
| THE COURSE PROVIDES AN INTRODUCTORY PART ON THE RELATION BETWEEN PLATO'S ONTOLOGICAL REFLECTION AND THE ETHICAL-POLITICAL ONE. THEREFORE, THROUGH THE READING OF PASSAGES OF THE TWO DIALOGUES, WE WILL TAKE INTO ACCOUNT SPECIFIC QUESTIONS, SUCH AS THE CONCEPTION OF BEING IN PLATO, THE RELATION BETWEEN IDENTITY AND DIFFERENCE AND THE NATURE OF THE STRUCTURAL INTERLACEMENT WHICH CHARACTERIZES THE INTELLIGIBILE REALITY AND ANALOGOUSLY THE PHYSICAL WORLD. WE WILL MOVE THAN ON THE ANALYSIS OF THE COLSE CONNECTION BETWEEN ONTOLOGICAL REFLECTION AND POLITICAL CONCEPTION IN PLATO. |
| Verification of learning | |
|---|---|
| THE PROOF CONSISTS OF AN ORAL EXAMINATION WHICH AIMS TO ASCERTAIN THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED BY THE STUDENT AND HIS CAPABILITY TO USE THIS KNOWLEDGE IN THE CONTEXT OF THE HISTORY OF ANCIENT THOUGHT. PARTICULAR ATTENTION WILL BE PAID TO STUDENT'S EXPOSITION SKILLS AND TO HIS CAPABILITY TO ANSWER IN A CLEAR AND PRECISE WAY IN ORDER TO SHOW HIS ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE IN TERMS BOTH OF CONTENT AND METHOD. |
