being and appearing, being and becoming, Heraclitus, Plato, TheaetetusAbstract
Following the first part of Plato's Theaetetus, which articulates being and appearing and after that connects appearing to becoming, this paper examines the way Plato has transmited Heraclitus' theories in this dialogue. The paper tries to show how the Theaetetus discusses three kinds of flux or becoming, attributing the assertion of only two of them to Heraclitus. It also intends to show that, when dealing with Heraclitus in the Theaetetus, Plato draws a rich and complex image of his ideas, discussing not only the flux theory, but also other important theses of the Ephesus philosopher, among which that of the unity of opposites.References
