Plato; ideas; Kant; athematic knowledge; use-knowledgeAbstract
In this article I unfold, first, the Kantian critic of platonic ideas in order to show the traditional interpretative presupposition according to which ideas in Plato are to be understood as an objective correlate of an intuition. Next, I develop in general terms the hermeneutical limits of such interpretation, showing that this does not make justice to the non-objectivist forms of knowledge introduced by Plato as the locus in which ideas are originary understood. Finally, I present the fundamentals of Wieland’s non-objectivistic interpretation of platonic ideas and their knowledge.
