224 pp/ Akal Nuestro Tiempo/ Traducción de Carlos Másmela/ En el semestre de invierno de 1942-1943, Martin Hedigegger pronunció en la Universidad de Friburgo una lección bajo el título «Parménides y Heráclito». En ella el filósofo alemán se ocupó de la interpretación del "Poema" parmenideo, con una profunda y fértil reflexión sobre el nombre y la palabra alétheia, su traducción, el conflicto de su desocultamiento-ocultamiento, la mirada, el ser. Un texto inédito hasta la fecha que se presenta por primera vez al lector de habla hispana según la edición establecida por Manfred S. Frings/ R7-4

Parmenides, a lecture course delivered by Martin Heidegger at the University of Freiburg in 1942-1943, presents a highly original interpretation of ancient Greek philosophy. A major contribution to Heidegger’s provocative dialogue with the pre-Socratics, the book attacks some of the most firmly established conceptions of Greek thinking and of the Greek world. The central theme is the question of truth and the primordial understanding of truth to be found in Parmenides' "didactic poem." Heidegger highlights the contrast between Greek and Roman thought and the reflection of that contrast in language. He analyzes the decline in the primordial understanding of truth―and, just as importantly, of untruth―that began in later Greek philosophy and that continues, by virtue of the Latinization of the West, down to the present day. Beyond an interpretation of Greek philosophy, Parmenides (volume 54 of Heidegger's Collected Works) offers a strident critique of the contemporary world, delivered during a time that Heidegger described as "out of joint."

David Gallop provides a Greek text and a new facing-page translation of the extant fragments of Parmenides' philosophical poem. He also includes the first complete translation into English of the contexts in which the fragments have been transmitted to us, and of the ancient testimonia regarding Parmenides' life and thought. All of the fragments have been translated in full and are arranged in the order that has become canonical since the publication of the fifth edition of Diels-Rranz's Die Fragmente der Vorsokratiker. Alternative renderings are provided for passages whose meaning is disputed or where major questions of interpretation hinge upon the text or translation adopted. In an extended introductory essay, Gallop offers guidance on the background of the poem, and a continuous exposition of it, together with a critical discussion of its basic argument. The volume also includes an extensive bibliography, a glossary of key terms in the poem, and a section on sources and authorities.

In a new interpretation of Parmenides' philosophical poem On Nature, Vishwa Adluri considers Parmenides as a thinker of mortal singularity, a thinker who is concerned with the fate of irreducibly unique individuals. Adluri argues that the tripartite division of Parmenides' poem allows the thinker to brilliantly hold together the paradox of speaking about being in time and articulates a tragic knowing: mortals may aspire to the transcendence of metaphysics, but are inescapably returned to their mortal condition. Hence, Parmenides' poem articulates a "tragic return", i.e., a turn away from metaphysics to the community of mortals. In this interpretation, Parmenides' philosophy resonates with post-metaphysical and contemporary thought. The themes of human finitude, mortality, love, and singularity echo in thinkers such as Arendt, and Schürmann as well. Plato, Parmenides and Mortal Philosophy also includes a complete new translation of 'On Nature' and a substantial overview and bibliography of contemporary scholarship on Parmenides.

John Palmer develops and defends a modal interpretation of Parmenides, according to which he was the first philosopher to distinguish in a rigorous manner the fundamental modalities of necessary being, necessary non-being or impossibility, and non-necessary or contingent being. This book accordingly reconsiders his place in the historical development of Presocratic philosophy in light of this new interpretation. Careful treatment of Parmenides' specification of the ways of inquiry that define his metaphysical and epistemological outlook paves the way for detailed analyses of his arguments demonstrating the temporal and spatial attributes of what is and cannot not be. Since the existence of this necessary being does not preclude the existence of other entities that are but need not be, Parmenides' cosmology can straightforwardly be taken as his account of the origin and operation of the world's mutable entities. Later chapters reassess the major Presocratics' relation to Parmenides in light of the modal interpretation, focusing particularly on Zeno, Melissus, Anaxagoras, and Empedocles. In the end, Parmenides' distinction among the principal modes of being, and his arguments regarding what what must be must be like, simply in virtue of its mode of being, entitle him to be seen as the founder of metaphysics or ontology as a domain of inquiry distinct from natural philosophy and theology. An appendix presents a Greek text of the fragments of Parmenides' poem with English translation and textual notes.

« Eh bien, donc je vais parler — toi, écoute mes paroles et retiens-les — je vais te dire quelles sont les deux seules voies de recherche à concevoir : la première — comment il est et qu’il n’est pas possible qu’il ne soit pas — est le chemin auquel se fier — car il suit la Vérité —. La seconde, à savoir qu’il n’est pas et que le non-être est nécessaire, cette voie, je te le dis, n’est qu’un sentier où ne se trouve absolument rien à quoi se fier. Car on ne peut ni connaître ce qui n’est pas — il n’y a pas là d’issue possible —, ni l’énoncer en une parole. » Parménide — Le Poème« Si tout grand poème est un événement, et même peut-être une aventure, la question se pose de savoir ce qui, au juste, advient dans le Poème de Parménide. Nous pouvons formuler ainsi la réponse. Ce qui advient, dans le Poème de Parménide, c’est la transcendance elle-même non pas sans doute au sens métaphysique, qui dominera depuis le platonisme jusqu’à nos jours, d’un étant transcendant, mais au sens du dépassement ou de la transgression radicale de tout étant possible vers l’éclaircie même de l’être de l’étant. » Jean BeaufretTable des matières Avertissement de l''éditeurAvant-proposIntroduction à la lecture du Poème de ParménideFragments

Mourelatos’ study of the fragments of Parmenides’ poem combines traditional philological reconstruction with the approaches of literary criticism and philosophical analysis in order to reveal the thought structure and expressive unity of the best preserved and most important, influential, and coherent text of Greek philosophy before Plato. Through philosophical, philological, and literary analysis, Mourelatos examines the morphology of images and metaphors in Parmenides’ text with the aim of articulating and interpreting the poem’s key concepts and component arguments. Relevant antecedents and parallels from the tradition of epic poetry, especially from Homer’s Odyssey, are explored in depth.
