Is 'ti' referring to the 'highest, most renowned Self'? 136d,e - An ethical matter. What can we tell from Zeno's statement? "Discursive Progression" - JulieH/lexicon: instead of this, maybe "orbit" or "full account"? Regina 135a question, then return at 0:50:00 What is "pantes" (wandering/roaming/astray)? What is the difference between Parmenides and Zeno? What is "discursive" then? Do these go together? How would "the Many" react to this kind of work? 137a/P60: Again: Would it be unethical to ask Parmenides to go through this? Why?
