In an era marked by profound philosophical inquiry, "Κρατύλος" by Plato examines the intricate relationship between language and reality. This dialogue features Socrates and Hermogenes, who engage in a compelling exploration of the essence of names and their connection to the objects they signify. Central to their discussion are the concepts of "correct naming" and the implications of linguistic accuracy on understanding truth. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this work invites readers to reflect on the power of words and their role in shaping thought and society. "Κρατύλος" stands as a testament to Plato's enduring influence, offering insights that resonate across centuries in the study of language and philosophy.
