Note 908 — Chapter VIII · THE YOUNGER ELEATICS
Reading edition
This has been denied by Offner, “Zur Beurtheilung des Melissos” (Arch. iv. pp. 12 sqq.), but I now think he goes too far. Cf. especially Top. ix. 6, ὡς ἄμφω ταὐτὰ ὄντα τῷ ἀρχὴν ἔχειν, τό τε γεγονὸς καὶ τὸ πεπερασμένον. The same point is made in Soph. El. 167 b 13 and 181 a 27.
