Parmenides

This text, as one might expect in a book on ancient philosophy, is heavily flavored with Greek and Latin. It is giving away no secret that Heidegger decried the Latinizing of things Greek, and one of the central themes of the present volume is the impoverishment in the understanding of Being concomitant with such ""transporting"." To the reader unfamiliar with Greek, certain passages might appear rather formidable, then. For the rest, the book's format and content very closely match the source text.
