查询词典 PLATO

In the Theaetetus Plato tried to show the danger of conceiving the world as but a Heraclitean flux; for discourse to be possible, we need something like general terms. Or in other words, there must be something more than the mere perception of each individual in each moment. This "must" is not the Kantian "must"--in the sense of a transcendental precondition for cognition--but a "must" that is thoroughly practical: without general terms, we cannot even talk to each other.
