حقيقت و آتش در شعر پارمنيد

Fire and Truth in parmenidesʹ poem

Truth in Greek language is called aletheia, which means unveiling or unhiddenness. This word is repeated seven times in the first part of the poem. The present paper attempts to discuss the different meanings of this word by parmenides. The author hopes to show that aletheia does not mean "unveiling" all over the poem. Only in the untrembling and well-rounded heart of aletheia, it means "Being". But when parmenides explains how the things come into being, he no longer uses the word aletheia, but fire (light) whose nature is essentially associated with unveiling.
