Kenneth M. Sayre is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame, USA. He is the author of numerous books on philosophy, including Plato's Analytic Method (1969), Cybernetics and the Philosophy of Mind (1976), Plato's Late Ontology: A Riddle Resolved (1983), Plato's Literary Garden (1995), Parmenides' Lesson (1996), and Belief and Knowledge (1997).
"The transmission of the platonic thought, particularly its doctrine on the existence of universal or separate Ideas through writings of Aristotle, has always been a subject of controversy and it has not always been met by the fidelity of the Stageirian, nor by its lack of interest. The author has worked intensely on the resolution of this historical enigma using a thorough analysis of the same stylistic resources". - Heythrop Journal

Softcover. Condition: Very Good+. Spine discolored else Fine. ; 344 pages; Prior to the publication of "Plato's Late Ontology" in 1983, there was general agreement among Plato scholars that the theses attributed to Plato in Book A of "Aristotle's Metaphysics" can not be found in the dialogues. "Plato's Late Ontology" presented a textually based argument that in fact these theses appear both in the Philebus and in the second part of the Parmenides. The pivotal point of the argument is a number of synonyms for the expressions used by Aristotle in reporting Plato's views, found in the Greek commentators on Aristotle's writing during the 3rd to the 6th Centuries A.D. These synonyms are also used by Plato himself in discussing the theses in question. This book is a reprint of "Plato's Late Ontology" along with a recent article showing that a subset of these theses can also be found in the section of measurement appearing in the middle of the Statesman. The argument to this effect is an extension of that in "Plato's Late Ontology", but is supported by a much expanded list of synonyms from the Greek commentators. The appearance of the theses in question in the Statesman augments the original argument for their presence in the Parmenides and the Philebus. Seller Inventory # 9351
