Unity and Multiplicity in Plato’s Psychology: Observations upon the Problem Concerning the Unity of Perceptive Experience at the Light of Theaetetus 182d8-e11; 184d1-5

The present work makes a joint interpretation of two passages of the platonic dialogue Theaetetus (cf. 182d8-e11; 184d1-5).

Specifically, it aims at showing the temporal background that lies under Plato’s thesis according to which it is necessary that the agent of perception plays a unifying role, a role without which the very perceptive experience could not be as it is. Said temporal background consists of showing, on the one hand (cf. 182d8-e11), that simultaneous perceptions need to converge in una common “place” that synthesizes them, whereas, on the other hand, it consists of emphasizing that, despite of perception taking place in the manner of a certain flux, necessarily there has to be certain permanence in it, not just so that things perceived exhibit some stability through time for the observer himself, but also so that there can be such “himself” to whom those things could appear. El presente trabajo lleva a cabo una interpretación conjunta de dos pasajes del diálogo platónico Teeteto (cf. 182d8-e11; 184d1-5). En específico, busca mostrar el trasfondo temporal que yace a la postura de Platón según la cual es necesario que el agente de percepción cumpla un rol unificante, rol sin el cual la propia experiencia perceptiva no podría ser tal como es. Dicho trasfondo temporal consiste, en un caso (cf. 182d8-e11), en mostrar que las percepciones simultáneas necesitan convergen en un “lugar” común que las sintetice, mientras que, en otro caso (cf. 184d1-5), radica en poner de relieve que, a pesar de que la percepción acontece a la manera de un cierto flujo, es menester que en ella haya cierta permanencia, no sólo para que las cosas percibidas muestren alguna estabilidad en el tiempo para uno mismo, sino también para que pueda haber un “sí mismo” al cual esas cosas puedan comparecerle.
