SONNA, Valeria. OUK ÉSTIN ANTILÉGEIN. ANTÍSTENES TRAS LA MÁSCARA DE PARMÉNIDES EN EL SOFISTA DE PLATÓN. Eidos [online]. 2017, n.27, pp.15-37. ISSN 1692-8857.

The main subject of this article is the philosophical view often attributed to An-tisthenes that it is impossible to contradict (ouk éstin antilégein) and to speak falsely (pseúdesthai) and it's link to the Sophist's nodal metaphysical problem, that ofNot Being. The impossibility of contradiction is presented as the opposite position to sophistry as contradiction (antilogikós), thus defined in So/, 232b ff., which is attributed to Protagoras, specifically to his statement that about any subject there are two opposite lógoi. We will argue that this position that is attributed to Parmenides in this dialogue belongs to Antisthenes, who was Socrates' disciple and Plato's theoretic rival.

Keywords : Sophistry; negation; falsity; Not Being; lógos pseudés; oikeios lógos; Minor Socratics.
