Grice e Timeo: la ragione conversazionale a Roma e l’implicatura conversazionale della filosofia italiana – filosofia calabrese -- Grice italo-- Luigi Speranza, pel Gruppo di Gioco di H. P. Grice, The Swimming-Pool Library, Villa Speranza (Locri). Filosofo italiano. Locri, Reggio Calabria, Calabria. T. is the lead character in a dialogue by Plato, named, of course after him. T. is described as rich, a sometime holder of high office, and a philosopher of considerable accomplishment – “which, by Plato’s standards, means a lot” – Grice. According to CICERONE, Plato meets Timeo and studies with him – “or *under* him, as the Greeks have it.” – Grice. In the dialogue, Timeo expounds a theory of how the natural world came into existence – “even if nobody asked him!” – Grice. CICERONE describes Timeo as a Pythagorean – “But everybody except himself was a Pythagorean for Cicerone!” – Grice. Giamblico in fact describes two men named Timeo as Pythagoreans (“But he wasn’t wearing glasses!” – Grice. His works are considered apocryphal – “but that is a complimentary epithet at Oxford, as Strawson well knows!” Grice: “Timeo puts Locri on the philosophical map!” Grice: But of course Cuoco is right and Pythagoras himself was possibly from Locri!” – Grice. Keywords: CICERONE.
