| description | The purpose of the text is to suggest the need to reconsider and reevaluate
Plato's legacy, particularly his contribution to literary theory and practice. Contrary to
the unqualified admiration for the 'founder' of European philosophy, or less than
convincing arguments concerning his legacy in the Romantic and Symbolist poetics, in
what follows I will claim, with Bela Hamvash, that Plato's ambition was not to found
anything, but to rescue, and not mankind but the state, and that in doing so he
corrupted the more original spiritual traditions, which, in fact, underlie what is best in
Romanticism, Symbolism, and also in earlier poetic movements wrongly referred to as
Platonic, or Neo-Platonic. Far from inspiring significant poetic achievement, Plato's
views of poetry and their metaphysical premises deserve close study for the sole reason
that they represent an exemplary model for much of the subsequent reactionary use of
philosophy and literary theory. |
