No Górgias de Platão, o personagem-título, e seus seguidores, pretendem que a retórica seja a mais valiosa das artes e Sócrates se opõe a essa pretensão, em nome dos valores que subjazem à arte dialética de argumentação. Neste artigo, indico, no modo da conjectura, algumas razões para se acreditar que essa oposição revela uma oposição mais básica entre duas maneiras de fundamentar o valor da racionalidade, sabedoria e moralidade.
Abstract
In Plato's Gorgias, the title character and his followers claim that rhetoric is the most valuable among human arts, and Socrates opposes this claim, in the name of the values which underlie the dialectical art of argumentation. In this paper, we indicate, in a conjectural mood, some reasons to believe that this opposition reveals a more basic opposition between two ways of grounding the value of rationality, wisdom and morality.
