Dwie możliwe interpretacje paradoksu Zenona z Elei Korzec prosa
Two possible interpretations of Zeno of Elea’s paradox of the Grain of Millet

Summary/Abstract: The topic of this article is Zeno of Elea’s Grain of Millet Argument. All of Zeno’s survived arguments are known from the writings of later philosophers. The Grain of Millet paradox is briefly presented by Aristotle in his Physics, and it is included in the Commentary on Aristotle’s “Physics” by Simplicius. Both fragments, which are examined in what follows, contain partially different terminology and reasoning based on different inference schemes. The aim of this paper is to argue that the fragment from Aristotle’s Physics shows this paradox as an argument against movement rather than multiplicity, as it is usually presented in the light of Simplicius’ fragments. Both fragments are published in Greek with original translations and a detailed analysis of their content.
