A SAIL IN PLATO. 1995.

Little Sparta: Wild Hawthorn Press, 1995
14.8 x 10.5cm, 1pp, Artist’s card printed black on dark “gold”. A quotation from the “Parmenides dialogue” where the divisibility of things is discussed is reprinted because of the use of the idea of a SAIL (the maritime imagery appealing to Finlay one presumes) and whether if it covers more than one man it is still a single thing. In the original a sail is compared to the sky – is the sky over everything or is just part of the sky covering the earth? VG+.
