Parmenides' Vision

A Study of Parmenides' Poem

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book intends to establish, against his numerous modern critics, that the ancient philosopher Parmenides was a mystic. Instead of arriving at his conclusions by cold reason, Parmenides found the unity of Being, which he called "the Truth," by turning to a life of meditation.
