The Role Of Exaphnes In Early Greek Literature Philosophical Transformation In Platos Dialogues And Beyond Joseph Cimakasky by Joseph Cimakasky 9781498525411, 1498525415 instant download after payment.

There are thirty-six appearances of the Greek wordexaíphnesin Plato’s dialogues. Usually translated as “all of a sudden” or “suddenly,”exaíphnesemerges in several significant passages. For example,exaíphnesappears three times in the “allegory of the cave” fromRepublicvii and heralds the vision of the Beautiful inSymposium. Commonly translated in theParmenidesas “the instant,”exaíphnesalso surfaces in a crucial section of the dialogue’s training exercise.The Role ofExaíphnesin Early Greek Literature: Philosophical Transformation in Plato’s Dialogues and Beyondconnects the thirty-six scattered appearances of exaíphnes and reveals the role it plays in linking Plato’s theory of Ideas with education. Joe Cimakasky discloses how Plato’s step-by-step, methodical approach to philosophical education climaxes with a dynamic conversion experience signified by the appearance ofexaíphnes.
Cimakasky shows how Plato’s conception ofexaíphneswas transformative with respect to how the term was used in Greek literature by his predecessors and influential for ensuing philosophers. Following Plato,exaíphnesand its cognates came to represent the peak of philosophical or theological enlightenment.The Role ofExaíphnesin Early Greek Literaturetraces the meaning of the term in Greek literature prior to and contemporaneous with Plato, Plato’s innovative use ofexaíphnes, and the impact of Plato’s notion of “the sudden” upon subsequent thinkers.
This book will be of interest to students and scholars of philosophy, ancient philosophy, pedagogy, ethics, and hermeneutics. In addition, those working in religious studies will appreciate the focus on conversion narratives and their emergence in ancient philosophical and Biblical texts.
