  • XI—Parmenides of Elea and Xenophanes of Colophon

    Open AccessAlexander P D MourelatosARTICLEProceedings of the Aristotelian…2022

    According to the influential Plato-Aristotle account, Parmenides advocates holistic monism (‘all things are one’), and Xenophanes anticipated him by advocating some version of monotheism. Over the last half-century or so, Parmenides studies have disputed this vulgate by arguing that Parmenides’ focus is on the nature of ‘what is’ (to eon), rather than on ‘the One’. Correspondingly, there has developed a tendency to minimize the philosophical impo…

  • After Parmenides

    Alexander P D MourelatosBOOKAfter Parmenides2022

    This set of previously published essays-several of them now expanded and revised-offers a sustained analysis of conceptual connections between (i) the metaphysics and epistemology of Parmenides and (ii) corresponding themes in the philosophies of other pre-Socratics. The book's central part explores how the early philosophers of Greece became progressively sensitized to the importance of such concepts as "form", "type", "structure", "arrangement"…

  • Anthropomorphism and Epistemic Anthropo- philautia

    Open AccessAlexander P D MourelatosCHAPTERAncient Ethics and the Natural…2021

    This chapter investigates the critique of anthropomorphism that we find in Xenophanes of Colophon and Heraclitus of Ephesus. Hesiod’s Theogony is assumed as background and as paradigm for the tendency to treat either the world’s components or gods generally as humanlike. With Xenophanes of Colophon we have the first and one of the fiercest attacks on such a kind of anthropomorphism, inasmuch as Xenophanes not only challenges anthropomorphism in t…

Mourelatos combines traditional philological reconstruction with the approaches of literary criticism and philosophical analysis to reveal the thought structure and expressive unity of the best preserved, most important and coherent text of Greek philosophy before Plato. The author shows how Parmenides' deduction of the signposts and bounds of what-is…

  • Parmenide

    Matteo Marciano, Giovanni Casertano et al.

    Is Parmenides really the speculative philosopher he has come to be presented as in western philosophical tradition? If we leave aside the ‘philosophical’ assumptions that underlie modern interpretations and read his poem as what the author himself tells us it is — a divine revelation, together with all that this implies — and if we place it in its historical and cultural context of Velia and Magna Grecia, the answer is no. Parmenides describes ve…
