Resumo: The Platonic proposal that the philosopher should return to the cave in order to “care for the others” seems to conflict with the idea, defended by Socrates, that justice is advantageous to oneself. Although Socrates insists that his proposal is just referring to the reciprocity principle (519b), nevertheless the law that favors happiness, not of a group, but of the whole polis (520d) and the disregard that the philosopher has for public issues (521b) would seem to go contrary to the philosopher’s own benefit. If the necessity were determined by the philosopher’s own nature, it would be a means for the realization of the same nature. In this article, as we aim to show, knowledge of oneself develops at several levels and these correspond to the several levels of the cave/divided line which constitute the whole knowledge of men

Aun cuando Sócrates insiste en que su propuesta es justa haciendo referencia al principio de reciprocidad (519 b), la ley que favorece la felicidad, no de un grupo sino de toda la polis (520 d), y el menosprecio que el filósofo tiene por los asuntos públicos (521 b) pareciera ir en contra de su propio beneficio. Si la necesidad estuviera determinada por su propia naturaleza sería una forma de realización de esa naturaleza. Como pretendo mostrar, el conocimiento de si se desarrolla en diversas fases, que corresponden a los diversos niveles de caverna/línea que constituyen un conocimiento integral del hombre.Revista HypnosHypnos Journal2012-12-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://hypnos.org.br/index.php/hypnos/article/view/186Revista Hypnos; n. 29 (2012): Platão IIHypnos Journal; No. 29 (2012): Platão II2177-53461413-9138reponame:Hypnosinstname:Faculdade de São Bento (FSB)instacron:FSBporhttps://hypnos.org.br/index.php/hypnos/article/view/186/188Copyright (c) 2012 Raúl Gutiérrezinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGutiérrez, Raúl2015-09-06T01:58:20Zoai:ojs.hypnos.org.br:article/186Revistahttps://hypnos.org.br/index.php/hypnosPRIhttps://hypnos.org.br/index.php/hypnos/oairachelgazolla@gmail.com2177-53461413-9138opendoar:2023-01-13T09:46:52.695835Hypnos - Faculdade de São Bento (FSB)false
