Day 58: Sophist 252d-256d (pgs. 275-279)

Today: lots of detailed argument about the relationships between the forms being, change, rest, same, and different.

1. I'm sure lots could be said about why those five items consist of two pairs of (what we would think of as) opposites and being, and does not include not being. I'm not entirely sure why that's so.

2. Note to self: figure out the details of the arguments at 255a-b and 256a-b.

Happy reading!

    Happy reading, everyone!
