Abstract

In the Meno, there is a paradox (aporema) claiming that research and therefore learning are impossible. as we know something or not. If there is knowledge, we do not need to study and if there is not, we cannot search for we do not have any idea of the subject -mat ter. Plat o resolves the paradox by the t heory of Anamnesis: knowledge/learning is recollection. This theory presupposes the pre-existence of the soul and its transmigrate ion. In the Posterior Analytics ARISTOTLE discusses the paradox and resolves it by separation of previous universal knowledge (of major premise) from particular knowledge of things. AL-FARABI in the treatise Harmonization between the opinions of PLATO and ARISTOTLE, tries to reconcile his principal views one of which is on the PARADOX OF MENO. He relates their views from PLATO's Phaedo and ARISTOTLE's Posterior Analytics and then harmonizing them. AL-FARABI as a Muslim philosopher pays no attention to the theory of soul transmigration in the Phaedo and looks at the arguments of the immortalit y of the soul as a witness that Plat o uses in answering the problem of knowledge/learning. Because of this interpretation and his focusing on the essence of recollect ion theory, AL-FARABI eventually reconciles the recollect ion theory (of PLATO) with the theories of deduction and induction (in ARISTOTLE).
