When Plato took up this concept, he launched an understanding that would have a very long life in classical philosophy: the idea that doing philosophy itself has an essentially contemplative character was now explicitly formulated. But this only leads us to the next question: according to Plato, what is the nature of this contemplation as a form of cognition? How does philosophy, understood as \u003ci\u003ethe�ria\u003c\/i\u003e and as a cognitive activity, relate to other forms of cognition--perception, memory, recollection, imagination, and emotion? The essays collected in this book explore the nature of \u003ci\u003ethe�ria\u003c\/i\u003e as cognition, while also taking into account the metaphors, dramatic settings, and cultural background that frame Plato's dialogues, showing it to be not only a \"way of life\" but also a form of knowledge.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47969165639831,"sku":"9789004747111","price":14729.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789004747111.webp?v=1782920707","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/theoria-as-cognition-in-plato-9789004747111","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
