Parmenides
Parmenides was an ancient Greek philosopher from the city of Elea, known for his foundational role in Western metaphysics and epistemology. His work, particularly the poem 'On Nature,' presents a radical view that reality is unchanging and that all change is an illusion. Parmenides argued that the senses are deceptive and that reason is the only path to understanding existence. His ideas challenged the prevailing views of his time, influencing later philosophers, including Plato and Aristotle, and laying the groundwork for discussions on the nature of being and reality.
