I think the translator was faithful π
Although I loved philosophy when we had it in high school, I forgot many things and for example, I would not remember this idea of Plato. π Thank you. When we have to play something, (I mean my musical instrument, as a soloist or with someone) we have to have it first in our mind, how we want it to sound; even more, it is not just to imagine it but to "hear" with my inner hearing, get into the music before play any key. So it has a lot of similarities with what you explained here π
I hope your weekend is going well, sorry for the time it took me to respond, my son is at home so we cooked and walked and cooked again haha π
I like to study metaphysics very much and I do it every day, I learn and improve. It has changed my life completely, that's why I know these things haha.
Don't worry, enjoy the time with him, I'm here with house stuff!π
