Synopsis "Cratylus (in English)"
Plato's Cratylus is a philosophical dialogue that examines the nature of language, its relationship to reality, and the role of names and words in conveying meaning. Socrates engages in a discussion with Cratylus, who argues that names have an inherent connection to the objects they represent. Hermogenes contends that names are arbitrary conventions agreed upon by humans, lacking any inherent connection to their referents. Plato explores the question of whether language is a mere convention or if it has a deeper relationship with reality. Through Socratic dialogue, he investigates the nature of language, the power of names, and the possibility of a true and correct language that accurately reflects the world. The dialogue raises profound questions about the nature of language and its relationship to truth and knowledge. It invites readers to reflect on the power and limitations of language, the process of naming, and the complex relationship between words and the world they seek to describe.
