What if the nature of reality is built on contradictions?

In Parmenides, Plato presents a dialogue unlike any other—one that turns philosophy inward to critique its own foundations. Through a dramatic meeting between Socrates and Parmenides, we’re led into the depths of metaphysical inquiry. Is the theory of Forms coherent? Can one truly speak of “being” without paradox?

This modern adaptation brings clarity to Plato’s dense logic and rigorous questioning, allowing listeners to immerse themselves in one of philosophy’s greatest challenges.

What you’ll discover inside:

• A sharp critique of the theory of Forms by the philosopher who first developed it

• A journey through eight logical hypotheses that test the meaning of unity and being

• The philosophical origins of metaphysics and dialectical reasoning

• A clear, modernized translation that makes complex thought more accessible
