Aprašymas

Monografijoje „Platonas: filosofavimas grožio akivaizdoje“ susitelkiant ties Platono dialogais, kuriuose dominuoja sielos problematika, naujai interpretuojama platoniškoji kilnios meilės samprata.
Apmąstydamas sielos kaip filosofavimo subjekto būdą, Platonas nustato meilę esant palankiausia natūralia būsena filosofavimo siekiams realizuoti. Santykyje tarp brandaus vyro ir gražaus berniuko, t. y. grožio akivaizdoje, eksploatuojant ir pažabojant tarp seksualumo ir dieviškumo tarpstantį erotiškumą, filosofuojančiojo mąstymui prieinama tampa etinės prigimties būtis.

The monograph „Plato: Philosophizing in the Face of Beauty“ presents a new approach at interpreting those dialogues of Plato that conditionally could be called as dialogues about the Soul.
The novelty of the interpretation lies in an effort to treat the dialogues, and antique philosophy in general, from the point of view of the subject of philosophizing. The latter is defined as an anonymous and not a self-identifying subject due to its lack of Descartian ego cogito. Such a conception of the subject explains why it is only the object of thinking that is directly presumed in the gnoseological scheme of antique philosophy. However, taking into account the specific nature of the subject of antique philosophizing – the Soul – it is possible to analytically reconstruct those ontognoseological aspects of Plato's philosophy which are usually treated as the inconsistencies of Plato's thinking.

In addition, a particular focus is given in the monograph to the value structure of Platonic philosophy with its prevailing ideas of the beauty and the good. This special role attributed by Plato to beauty in particular enables his philosophy to be interpreted as philosophizing in the face of beauty.
