This paper aim to present a account of Plato’s theory of knowledge in accordance with the semantic inferentialism and logical expressivism of Robert Brandom. The Sofist and the Letter VII are the most relevant platonic texts here, for it is in those texts that a platonic epistemology is most explicit presented. The paper start with a definition of Events, for it will be the ontological ground of the argument presented. For the truth in Brandom’s theory may be understood as the expressive force of reasons that one commit oneself to, and in Plato is an activity of the psyché that harmonize the illimited manyfold occurrences of being in movement with the stability of eternal ideas. Thus, it will be argued that conceptual content of claims is subordinated by the event that a person can appropriate itself. The Idea is that the social status of knower is a reason that authorizes social practices between rational agents, and one has to aknowledge that status in others in order to make moves in the game of give and ask for reasons.
