Sumario: | This book explores the concept of 'phantasía' in ancient Greek philosophy, focusing on its interpretation and critique by philosophers such as Protagoras, Plato, and Aristotle. The authors argue that while Plato sought to establish a clear distinction between philosophy and sophistry, he was nonetheless influenced by Protagorean thought, particularly in his dialogues. The book examines how Plato's concept of 'phantasía' as a blend of sensation and judgment reflects this influence, and how Aristotle further developed this idea, emphasizing the distinction between perception and thought. By analyzing the philosophical debates between these thinkers, the book provides insights into the evolution of epistemology and gnoseology in classical philosophy. Intended for scholars and students of philosophy, it highlights the interplay between sensation, judgment, and knowledge in the works of these seminal Greek thinkers.
