  1. Language as a Way to Cognition.Pavlo Sodomora - 2018 - Sententiae 37 (2):159-164.
    The translator of the first Ukrainian version of Plato’s Cratylus (see above, p. ..) indicates the difficulties in translating the dialogue, emphasizing the external and internal aspects of those difficulties. The external aspect consists in the different etymology of Greek and Ukrainian words, and the internal one lays in the problem of choice between “Latinization” and “Ukrainization” of the translated text. The author made one of his translation principles to avoid excessive Latinization and justifies his decision.

  • The other as the essence of existence: a journal of a philosophical passage to altruism.Iraklis Ioannidis - 2019 - Dissertation, University of Glasgow
    This research is about altruism. In our first chapter, our quest to find whether we are essentially altruistic starts with questioning particular ways of inquiry and proposes a philosophy of unbracketing.

  • Paradoxical Nature of Language in Terms of its Acquisition and Learning.Pavlo Sodomora & Oleh Yerchenko - 2021 - Философия И Космология 26:123-131.
    The process of learning is analogous to the process of motion, as well as it resembles the progress from less to more perfect. Plato, combining two opposites, attempts at reconciliation of the theories of Heraclitus and Parmenides, providing us with his amazing theory of Forms. In light of this, he speaks of language as a means of cognizance of the Universe. In his own turn, and much later, Ludwig Wittgenstein, combining incompatible, speaks of language as the single subject which requires (...)

  • The Relation between Names and Things in Crtylus and its Relation to the Problem of Nomos and Phusis.Amirhossein Saket - 2019 - Journal of Philosophical Investigations 13 (26):195-212.
    The question concerning names and things discussed in Cratylus, repeats the old and fundamental philosophical subject of "phusis" and "nomos"; an essential issue which may be considered as the ground for many theories in Greek philosophy. The question In Cratylus is how relates a name to its object or thing to which the name refers. Are names by nature, i.e. is there any necessary relation between a name and its object, or as long as there is a convention, an object (...)
