Parmenides / / Parmenides of Elea / / Philosophy #Parmenides

@ TELEGRAM: “IT IS INDIFFERENT TO ME WHERE I AM TO BEGIN, FOR THERE SHALL I RETURN AGAIN.“ PARMENIDES PARMENIDES OF ELEA WAS AN ANCIENT GREEK MONIST PHILOSOPHER BORN IN ELEA, A GREEK CITY ON THE SOUTHERN COAST OF ITALY, AND FOUNDER OF THE ELEATIC SCHOOL OF PHILOSOPHY. THE SINGLE KNOWN WORK OF PARMENIDES IS A POEM WHICH HAS SURVIVED ONLY IN FRAGMENTARY FORM, IN WHICH HE ARGUES THAT REALITY IS ONE, CHANGE IS IMPOSSIBLE, AND THAT EXISTENCE IS TIMELESS AND UNIFORM. PARMENIDES' PHILOSOPHY HAS BEEN EXPLAINED WITH THE SLOGAN “WHATEVER IS IS, AND WHAT IS NOT CANNOT BE“. HE IS ALSO CREDITED WITH THE PHRASE OUT OF NOTHING NOTHING COMES. HE ARGUES THAT “A IS NOT“ CAN NEVER BE THOUGHT OR SAID TRUTHFULLY, AND THUS DESPITE APPEARANCES EVERYTHING EXISTS AS ONE, GIANT, UNCHANGING THING. PARMENIDES' VIEWS HAVE REMAINED RELEVANT IN PHILOSOPHY, EVEN THOUSANDS OF YEARS AFTER HIS DEATH. ALL IMAGES IN THIS VIDEO ARE IMAGES IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN. I USE TO THESE IMAGES FOR VIDEOS.
