Stephanos sections: 128c-e,135e-136b - Showing Socrates what Zeno has been working through: the "the other side" hypotheses: Instead of Parmenides' "If the One exists or the One does not exist" hypotheses, Zeno's hypotheses are, "if the Many exist, or if the Many do not exist." This is much more sophisticated and complex than Socrates's initial understanding. - The Self running through all of the above. - Is re-creating Zeno's hypotheses, too, our "homework"? Or is it unnecessary, as his "side" is not meaningful?
