 33 Intro|       supposed to reply that the perception may be true at any given

 41 Intro|    Theaetetus that “Knowledge is perception,” have all the same meaning.
 42 Intro|       that knowledge is sensible perception? Yet perhaps we are crowing
 43 Intro|          patient together with a perception, and the patient ceases

 48 Intro|          if so, knowledge is not perception. What then is knowledge?
 49 Intro|    perceive the other; or has no perception or knowledge of either—all
 50 Intro|      knowledge may exist without perception, and perception without

 54 Intro|        of the elements, viz. (3) perception of difference.~For example,
 55 Intro| Theaetetus, knowledge is neither perception nor true opinion, nor yet
 56 Intro|      that ‘Knowledge is sensible perception,’ may be assumed to be a
 57 Intro|      knowledge to be the same as perception.’ We may now examine these
 58 Intro|        is sensation, or sensible perception, by which Plato seems to
 59 Intro|      that ‘Knowledge is sensible perception’ is the antithesis of that
 60 Intro|       doctrine that knowledge is perception supplies or seems to supply
 61 Intro|          was the absoluteness of perception. Like Socrates, he seemed
 62 Intro|         in any higher sense than perception. For ‘truer’ or ‘wiser’
 63 Intro|          no analysis of sensible perception such as Plato attributes
 64 Intro|        and therefore no sensible perception, nor any true word by which
 65 Intro|     something more than sensible perception;—this alone would not distinguish
 66 Intro|      doctrine that ‘Knowledge is perception,’ we now proceed to look
 67 Intro|       and that ‘All knowledge is perception.’ This was the subjective
 68 Intro|  language were stripped off, the perception of outward objects alone
 69 Intro|          sense there is a latent perception of space, of which we only
 70 Intro|       one; or, in other words, a perception and also a conception. So
 71 Intro|    intensity or largeness of the perception, or on the strength of some
 72 Intro|         knowledge increases, our perception of the mind enlarges also.
 73 Text |         at present, knowledge is perception.~SOCRATES: Bravely said,
 74 Text |        You say that knowledge is perception?~THEAETETUS: Yes.~SOCRATES:

 76 Text |        now apply his doctrine to perception, my good friend, and first

 78 Text |          produce sweetness and a perception of sweetness, which are
 79 Text |     simultaneous motion, and the perception which comes from the patient
 80 Text |           as I myself become not perception but percipient?~THEAETETUS:

 83 Text |        course.~SOCRATES: Then my perception is true to me, being inseparable
 84 Text | affirming that knowledge is only perception; and the meaning turns out
 85 Text |      that, given these premises, perception is knowledge. Am I not right,
 86 Text |       way will be to ask whether perception is or is not the same as
 87 Text |     perceiving, and is not sight perception?~THEAETETUS: True.~SOCRATES:
 88 Text |          that which he sees; for perception and sight and knowledge
 89 Text |     assertion that knowledge and perception are one, involves a manifest
 90 Text |         knowledge is the same as perception.~THEAETETUS: True.~SOCRATES:

 93 Text |    hearing, or any other kind of perception? Is there any stopping in
 94 Text |     not-seeing, nor of any other perception more than of any non-perception,
 95 Text |     Certainly not.~SOCRATES: Yet perception is knowledge: so at least
 96 Text |          allow that knowledge is perception, certainly not on the hypothesis
 97 Text |       answered that knowledge is perception?~THEAETETUS: I did.~SOCRATES:

 99 Text |          will you assign for the perception of these notions?~THEAETETUS:
100 Text |         given to them?~SOCRATES: Perception would be the collective
101 Text |   THEAETETUS: No.~SOCRATES: Then perception, Theaetetus, can never be
102 Text |      proved to be different from perception.~SOCRATES: But the original
103 Text |     longer seek for knowledge in perception at all, but in that other
104 Text |         him does not accord with perception—that was the case put by
105 Text |     knowledge coincides with his perception, he will never think him

107 Text |       having some other sensible perception of both, I fail in holding
