Aspects of religiosity in Plato: eusébeia, asébeia, hósios and anósios
Keywords:
Plato, Greek religion, Euthyphro, Laws, RepublicAbstract
Religiosity appears frequently in the works of Plato. One of them is the dialogue called Euthyphro, dedicated to the definition of the religious feeling. This article aims to analyze briefly and generally the place that the terms eusébeia, asébeia, hósios and anósios occupy in the Platonic way of thinking, seeking to understand its unequal use in the work as a whole since hósios and its derivatives appear 148 times against only 7 occurences of eusébeia.
