Vladimir Ern reads Plato: an understanding of the cave

Бесплатный доступ

Vladimir Ern was one of the last pre-Revolution generation's philosophers who viewed Plato as an effective alternative to contemporary Western philosophy, and was among those who tried to reconstruct Plato's way of thinking in order to revolutionize philosophy. Ern produced his own interpretation of existential grounds of Plato's metaphysics, which he discovered in “Sun ekstasis” that presumably had happened to Plato as the ultimate final of his search for the Supreme Truth. Ern develops his perception through close reading of the Parable of the Cave in the Republic and the Phaedrus. He offers his reasons to choose these texts as bearers of a unique experience and strives to establish a new method of philosophizing as reproduction of Plato's way of philosophical Eros. In the article, Ern's reading of Plato's symbolic texts is being reconstructed and his project (unfortunately unfinished due to Ern's untimely death) is sketched in this essential features.
