2. Reason / C. Styles of Reason / 1. Dialectic

8937	Plato's 'Parmenides' is the greatest artistic achievement of the ancient dialectic [Hegel on Plato]
	Full Idea: Plato's 'Parmenides' is the greatest artistic achievement of the ancient dialectic.
	From: comment on Plato (Parmenides [c.364 BCE]) by Georg W.F.Hegel - Phenomenology of Spirit Pref 71
	A reaction: It is a long way from the analytic tradition of philosophy to be singling out a classic text for its 'artistic' achievement. Eventually we may even look back on, say, Kripke's 'Naming and Necessity' and see it in that light.
