RESUMEN
Es habitual señalar a Platón como uno de los portavoces del dualismo –el propio Platón era el primero en hacerlo–, a pesar de lo cual Peirce parece dispuesto a discutir esta idea, al menos por remisión a cómo sería la doctrina platónica si ciertas tendencias dentro de ella fueran debidamente reforzadas. El decorado escogido para poner en escena esta relectura, así como sus consecuencias para la adscripción de Platón como filósofo dogmático o científico (sic), es el mito de la caverna. Como ocurre tantas veces, la relectura trabaja en ambas direcciones y la ciencia tampoco sale indemne de sus tratos con la dialéctica.

ABSTRACT
Plato is generally considered to be –first of all by himself– an advocate of dualism. Peirce seems ready to discuss this description though, at least on account of what his philosophy would be, if certain trends in it were duly reinforced. The myth of the cave is chosen here as the perfect set to stage this re-reading of Plato, and its consequences regarding his ascription as a dogmatic or –surprisingly enough– a scientific philosopher. As it usually happens, the re-reading works both ways and science is also touched by this pairing up with dialectics.
