    • Communication and Kinship. On “Koinōnia” and “Syngeneia” in Plato’s Dialogues 

      Delle Donne, Carlo (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Departamento de HumanidadesPE, 2022-03-28)
      The purpose of this paper is to shed light on the multiple functions of the notion of koinōnia in Plato’s dialogues. Koinōnia and its absence characterize reality as a whole: both the intelligible and the sensible entities ...
