Incompleteness of Heidegger's Interpretation of Platonic Truth: A Critical Review of Plato's Doctrine of Truth
Author(s):
Abstract:
In his treatise of Platos Doctrine of Truth, by referring to Platos Allegory of the Cave, Heidegger intends to demonstrate that the meaning of truth in Platonic philosophy underwent some transformation comparing to how pre-Socratic Greeks defined it. Here, truth as unhiddenness is reduced to truth as true and correspondence. The purpose of the present paper is to explain that Heideggers interpretation of Platonic truth does not cover all of Platos ideas regarding the meaning of truth. Accordingly, by referring to some of Platos ideas regarding, for example, good, beauty, existence, and truth, the writers have tried to disclose some of the contradictory points of Heideggers interpretation of the meaning of truth in Platos philosophy. They have also tried to demonstrate that Heideggers reading of Plato is reductionist in nature, and that downgrading the meaning of truth merely to the level of true and correspondence, more than being based on Platos documented ideas, originates in Heideggers will to call the whole history of Western philosophy as Western metaphysics.
