About this listen

Delve into a groundbreaking exploration of the timeless dialogue between two philosophical titans: Plato and Derrida. This captivating book offers a fresh perspective on Plato's theory of Forms, the foundation of Western philosophy, as seen through the deconstructive lens of Jacques Derrida.

Embark on an intellectual journey that challenges traditional interpretations and reveals hidden assumptions within Platonic Idealism. Discover how Derrida's concepts of presence, absence, and the "trace" destabilize the hierarchical structure of Plato's Forms and offer a radical reinterpretation of knowledge, reality, and language.

Through clear and accessible prose, this book elucidates complex philosophical concepts, making it accessible to both seasoned scholars and curious newcomers to philosophy. Whether you're fascinated by ancient Greek thought, intrigued by deconstruction, or simply seeking to expand your intellectual horizons, this book will provoke thought and ignite your philosophical curiosity.
