Spaß und Maß. Über den frühesten Fall literarischer 'Selbstaufhebung' der Philosophie in Platons 'Phaidros' und deren hermeneutisches Unbehagen - Mikulić, Borislav (Array, 2014)
English Summary: The contribution deals with the so-called prohibition of writing for philosophy in Plato’s dialogue Phaedrus and the related hermeneutical controversy about the self- referrentiality of this particular case of a philosophical critique on culture and media in Plato’s written work itself. The article attempts to give both further going critical explanations and additional arguments to the debate between the representatives of both the historical-hermeneutical Platonic studies of the Tübingen school and their philosophical-hermeneutical opponents concerning the issue of universality and self-applicability of Plato’s writing critique. Specific arguments of both positions are being scrutinized on the basis of a detailed analysis of Plato’s metaphorical assertions and, differently from recent developments in the Tübingen School towards text-reception theory, put in a broader context of linguistic materialism of a sign theory in Plato, Hegel and the historic philosophy of language.
