Σοφιστής by Plato

"Σοφιστής" by Plato is a philosophical dialogue written around 360 BCE. Through dialectical method, the work seeks to define the sophist and distinguish him from the true philosopher. Using a process of division from general to specific concepts, the dialogue examines whether the sophist is a hunter, merchant, or mere imitator of wisdom. The investigation leads to profound questions about the nature of being and non-being, challenging Parmenides' philosophy and exploring how false statements can exist.
