Some philosophers argue that false speech and false belief are impossible. In the Sophist, Plato addresses this 'falsehood paradox', which purports to prove that one can neither say nor believe falsehoods (because to say or believe a falsehood is to say or believe something that is not, and is therefore not there to be said or believed). In this book Paolo Crivelli closely examines the whole dialogue and shows how Plato's brilliant solution to the paradox is radically different from those put forward by modern philosophers. He surveys and critically discusses the vast range of literature which has developed around the Sophist over the past fifty years, and provides original solutions to several problems that are so far unsolved. His book will be important for all who are interested in the Sophist and in ancient ontology and philosophy of language more generally. ; 322 pages

Very light shelfwear else fine. ; The variety of approaches adopted on the issue of Platonic ethics is very wide: however, two commonly-held opinions emerge from these essays. In the first place, one cannot ascribe to Plato an ethics deemed autonomous from other branches of philosophy, as it will later be in Aristotle. Secondly, the current approaches to Platonic ethics today are partial, if not unreliable. These two opinions actually overturn the manner in which the unclassifiable multiplicity of the approaches adopted here was in danger of being interpreted. Their absolute variety does not denote the non-existence of ethics in Plato but, on the contrary, the radical pervasiveness and strength of its ethical problematization, therefore, placing itself at the very roots - historical, linguistic and conceptual - of what Western thought shall yield in that sphere.
