Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Platos's Psychology in Its Bearing on the Development of Will: A Thesis Approved, in Its Original Form, for the Degree of Master of Arts in the University of London
Now it was surely Plato himself who first made explicit the true nature of this activity of thought or consciousness, since it was he who first distinguished clearly the im material from the material.1 Thenceforward there could be no more fusing of the two, the soul could no longer be conce, ived - even as Plato himself in his Heraclitean days must have conceived it - as a fiery substance. Parmenides' world of Pure Being had become after all attainable, though in a fashion he perhaps never dreamed of.
