Rose Cherubin of George Mason University joined APS members Jill Gordon, Sara Brill and Christopher Long for a special APS at SPEP edition of the Digital Dialogue to discuss the paper she gave entitled Parmenides, Another Way.

On the podcast, we take up once again the poem of Parmenides, but now from a perspective, as Rose suggests, that takes the dramatic and dialogical dimensions of the poem seriously.  Rose’s paper challenges traditional approaches to Parmenides that seek to identify the doctrine of Parmenides with the words spoken by the Goddess in the poem itself.  Rather, whatever teaching can be discerned in the poem must take the dramatic elements of the poem seriously.
