Beauty, Το Καλον, and Its Relation to the Good in the Works of Plato BEAUTY, ΤΟ ΚΑΛΟΝ, AND ITS RELATION TO THE GOOD IN THE WORKS OF PLATO by Nicholas P. Riegel A Thesis Submitted in Conformity with the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Philosophy University of Toronto © Copyright by Nicholas Riegel 2011 BEAUTY, ΤΟ ΚΑΛΟΝ, AND ITS RELATION TO THE GOOD IN THE WORKS OF PLATO Nicholas Riegel Doctor of Philosophy in Philosophy Department of Philosophy University of Toronto 2011 ABSTRACT Despite the evident importance of beauty (τὸ καλόν) in Plato, the precise relation between beauty and goodness (τὸ ἀγαθόν) has yet to be specified. Part of the reason for this seems to be the belief that καλός should not be translated ‘beautiful,’ because it has a broader sense and application than our word ‘beautiful.’ A better translation, on this view, would be something like ‘fine.’ But it is difficult to see the difference between fineness and goodness, and it is perhaps for this reason that determining the relation between the two has not been felt an urgent task. In the first chapter we shall investigate the use of the Greek word καλός in some of the major authors prior to and contemporary with Plato in order to determine the strength of the evidence for translations of καλός other than ‘beautiful.’ It will be argued that the evidence for translations of καλός other than ‘beautiful’ is weak, and thus that the word should ii generally be translated ‘beautiful.’ When we turn to Plato’s understanding of τὸ καλόν, we find that he often seems to associate the concept closely with goodness, and yet there are also passages which suggest a difference between the two. Thus the first question to ask is whether beauty and goodness are at least coextensive for Plato? In the second chapter it will be argued that despite some apparent evidence to the contrary, he does seem to think they are coextensive. In the third chapter we argue that Plato identifies goodness and unity, and that the coextension of goodness and beauty is explained on the model of the necessary connection between certain forms, or immanent characters, in the Phaedo. But it does not follow from this that goodness and beauty are identical. In the fourth chapter we will argue that, though beauty and goodness are connected in concrete particulars, qua forms they are distinct, i.e., there are two separate forms, the form of the good (which is identical to the one) and the form of beauty. Finally, a theme which runs more or less throughout this work is that, contrary to what one might expect, Plato seems to discover what is good by asking what is beautiful. This may seem counterintuitive, because there are passages, like Republic 452d‐e and 509b, where it seems that goodness determines or in a way causes beauty, but it seems that when trying to discover what is truly good, Plato always settles on what is beautiful. It may be agreed, even by those who disagree about what goodness is, that things like justice and courage are beautiful, and it is these that Plato always thinks constitute the human good. iii χαλεπὰ τὰ καλά ‐ Republic 435c, Hippias Major 304e, Cratylus 384b We should never underestimate what a word can tell us, for language represents the previous accomplishment of thought. ‐ Hans Georg Gadamer Es hat daher auch nie gelingen wollen, ein System der platonischen Lehre vom Schönen aufzubauen, und selbst geistvolle Versuche dieser Art scheitren in den wesentlichsten Punkten durch den nüchternen Widerspruch, den der Text gegen die Auslegung erhebt. Und doch vermochte hier die natürliche Grazie eines jugendfrischen Geistes, der Takt eines elastisch nachgebenden Empfindens die Untiefen glücklich zu umschiffen, auf welchen, unter dem Steuer einer doktrinären Hand, schon das auslaufende Fahrzeug um so härter aufsetzt, je unbekümmerter der Mut ist, der es dem bewegten Spiegel platonischer Gedanken zuführt. ‐ Julius Walter iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my supervisor, Lloyd Gerson, for showing me that there is always more truth and wisdom to be found in Plato, and my two advisors, Rachel Barney and Jennifer Whiting, for challenging me to become more precise and rigorous in my thought and writing. Their dedication to the highest standards of scholarship has enormously improved the quality of my thesis. I would also like to thank Brad Inwood for his encouragement and sound advice throughout the years. The remaining inadequacies are, of course, my own. Finally, for all their patience and support, I would like to thank my parents, John and Nicole Riegel, to whom I dedicate this thesis. v TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION......................................................................................................................... 1 CHAPTER 1................................................................................................................................. 13 ON THE MEANING OF ΚΑΛΟΣ........................................................................................ 13 1.0.

  • Seeing Oursel Es in the Xenoi – Plato's Warning to the Greeks
    Akropolis 3 (2019) 129-149 Marina Marren* Seeing Ourseles in the Xenoi – Plato’s Warning to the Greeks Abstract: In this essay about the story of Atlantis in Plato’s Timaeus, we focus on the crucial political message that the Atlantis tale contains. More precisely, we seek to respond to a question that may evade a completely satisfactory answer. The question is: Could Plato’s story of the rise and fall of Atlantis, in the Timaeus, be a warning tale to the Greeks of his own time? In order to root the inves- tigation prompted by this question in solid textual ground, we pay close attention to the framing of the Atlantis tale. In what follows, we analyze the series of substitutions (between mythical, ancient, and historical cities, i.e., Atlantis, Athens, and Sais) that Plato uses as he seeks to bring his readers to a point from which we can assess the politics of ancient Athens – a city that in Plato’s time stands on the brink of repeating the political blunders of the formerly glorious empire of the East. Introduction In the spirit of the tradition that takes Plato’s dialogues to be both works of literary genius and of philosophy, we pay careful attention to Plato’s narrative frames and to his choice of interlocutors in order to tease out the philosoph- ical and political recommendations that Plato has for his ancient readers and that his dialogues offer to us. To that end, in Section II, we focus on providing philosophically pertinent details related to the identity and ambitions of Critias IV who, on our interpretation, is the narrator of the Atlantis story.

  • Rethinking Athenian Democracy.Pdf
    Rethinking Athenian Democracy A dissertation presented by Daniela Louise Cammack to The Department of Government in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the subject of Political Science Harvard University Cambridge, Massachusetts January 2013 © 2013 Daniela Cammack All rights reserved. Professor Richard Tuck Daniela Cammack Abstract Conventional accounts of classical Athenian democracy represent the assembly as the primary democratic institution in the Athenian political system. This looks reasonable in the light of modern democracy, which has typically developed through the democratization of legislative assemblies. Yet it conflicts with the evidence at our disposal. Our ancient sources suggest that the most significant and distinctively democratic institution in Athens was the courts, where decisions were made by large panels of randomly selected ordinary citizens with no possibility of appeal. This dissertation reinterprets Athenian democracy as “dikastic democracy” (from the Greek dikastēs, “judge”), defined as a mode of government in which ordinary citizens rule principally through their control of the administration of justice. It begins by casting doubt on two major planks in the modern interpretation of Athenian democracy: first, that it rested on a conception of the “wisdom of the multitude” akin to that advanced by epistemic democrats today, and second that it was “deliberative,” meaning that mass discussion of political matters played a defining role. The first plank rests largely on an argument made by Aristotle in support of mass political participation, which I show has been comprehensively misunderstood. The second rests on the interpretation of the verb “bouleuomai” as indicating speech, but I suggest that it meant internal reflection in both the courts and the assembly.

  • Mcgilchrist and the Axial Age
    Article In Search of the Origins of the Western Mind: McGilchrist and the Axial Age Susanna Rizzo 1 and Greg Melleuish 2,* 1 School of Arts & Sciences, The University of Notre Dame Australia, Cnr Broadway and Abercrombie St, P.O. Box 944, Broadway, NSW 2007, Australia; [email protected] 2 School of Humanities and Social Inquiry, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, NSW 2525, Australia * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 26 November 2020; Accepted: 12 January 2021; Published: 25 January 2021 Abstract: This paper considers and analyses the idea propounded by Iain McGilchrist that the foundation of Western rationalism is the dominance of the left side of the brain and that this occurred first in ancient Greece. It argues that the transformation that occurred in Greece, as part of a more widespread transformation that is sometimes termed the Axial Age, was, at least in part, connected to the emergence of literacy which transformed the workings of the human brain. This transformation was not uniform and took different forms in different civilisations, including China and India. The emergence of what Donald terms a “theoretic” culture or what can also be called “rationalism” is best understood in terms of transformations in language, including the transition from poetry to prose and the separation of word and thing. Hence, the development of theoretic culture in Greece is best understood in terms of the particularity of Greek cultural development. This transition both created aporias, as exemplified by the opposition between the ontologies of “being” and “becoming”, and led to the eventual victory of theoretic culture that established the hegemony of the left side of the brain.

Taylor: Bodies and Contexts Bodies and Contexts: An Investigation into a Postmodern Feminist Reading of Averroës Reed Taylor, University of Arkansas at Little Rock Abstract: In this article, I contribute to the wider discourse of theorizing feminism in predominantly Muslim societies by analyzing the role of women’s political agency within the writings of the twelfth-century Islamic philosopher Averroës (Ibn Rushd, 1126–1198). I critically analyze Catarina Belo’s (2009) liberal feminist approach to political agency in Averroës by adopting a postmodern reading of Averroës’s commentary on Plato’s Republic. A postmodern feminist reading of Averroes’s political thought emphasizes contingencies and contextualization rather than employing a literal reading of the historical works.

The Good Lie is a 2014 American drama film written by Margaret Nagle, and directed by Philippe Falardeau. The aim of this research is to see the identity construction of Sudanese refugees in The Good Lie film. Using the Descriptive analysis and qualitative method to reveal the findings, thus, this research describes the identity dynamics of three main characters and their identity constructions through Stuart Hall‘s basic identity concept and three very different conceptions, and supported by Kathryn Woodward‘s identity concept.

The findings of this research explains the identity of someone or a group, in this case the Sudanese refugees affected by two things; life in the past and the future life (the recent life). After the identity construction, this research states that the Sudanese refugees‘ identities divided into the sociological subject. This happens due to the life of the Sudanese refugees experiencing the collision of culture and the identity negotiation, those interaction formed and modified the Sudanese refugees‘ identity but the subject still has an inner core or essence that is ―the real me‖ based on Hall‘s identity concept.

  • INFLUENTIAL TIME for MONTRÉAL in BARCELONA for More Than a Century, the Mercè De Barcelone Has Been One of Europe’S Greatest Events
    “At the top of all the charts, Montréal has acquired an enviable reputation on the world stage—and culture plays an important role in this.” Mélanie Joly Minister of Canadian Heritage Martin Coiteux Minister of Municipal Affairs and Land Occupancy, Minister of Public Security, Minister responsible for Montréal region INFLUENTIAL TIME FOR MONTRÉAL IN BARCELONA For more than a century, the Mercè de Barcelone has been one of Europe’s greatest events. This late-summer festival attracts more than two million participants and tourists. Montréal was the guest of honour in 2013. The program developed by Montréal featured the city’s digital creativity and artistic invent- iveness. Without a doubt, the highlight was provided by Moment Factory, based on an idea of Renaud – Architecture d’événe- ments: a multimedia spectacle projected on the facade of the Sagrada Família, Gaudí’s celebrated, if still unfinished, basilica. Titled Ode à la vie, it was a homage to the work of the Barcelona architect who, through the play of light and optics, emphasized lines and sculptures, while bringing poetic images to life, as if rising up from a dream. For three even- ings the show was acclaimed by thousands of enchanted spectators. A creation by Cirque Éloize, an electronic music performance presented by Piknic Électronik, a concert performed by traditional music group Le Vent du Nord and a festival of Québec films filled out this rich and varied programming—all in the image of the city they represent!
