On what Ontology Is and not-Is arXiv:0805.3359v1 [math.HO] 21 May 2008

Tijdschriftbijdrage - Tijdschriftartikel

In this paper I investigate the relation between physics and metaphysics in Plato's
participation theory. I show that the logic shoring up Plato's metaphysics is paraconsistent,
as had been suggested already by Graham Priest. The transformation of the paradoxical
One-and-Many of the pre-Socratics into a paraconsistent Great-and-Small bridges the abyss
between archaic rationality and the world of classical logic based ultimately on the principle
of contradiction.
