Dialetic and tékhnē in Plato’s Cratylus

In this article, we evaluated the notion of tékhnē in three contexts of the Cratylus, which allows us to identify three nuances associated with the term: 1. as a “know how” intermediated by an instrument (388e-389a); 2. as the possession of a noetic knowledge, in the moment of the etymological analy...

Sumario:In this article, we evaluated the notion of tékhnē in three contexts of the Cratylus, which allows us to identify three nuances associated with the term: 1. as a “know how” intermediated by an instrument (388e-389a); 2. as the possession of a noetic knowledge, in the moment of the etymological analysis of this word (414b-c) and 3. as the art of representing things through their names (428a-440e). Our point is to show these meanings not as something disconnected and fragmentary, but that they are developed within the dialectical movement of this dialog itself.
