AB  - Plato’s ideas on the practice ofphilosophers had highly influenced the way of doing philosophy in the West. Manyscholars, ancient and modern alike, have explored Plato’s conception ofphilosophy. This article is yet another attempt to understand the correctmanner of doing philosophy for Plato. To this end, I examine Plato’s Phaedo to contribute the growing body of literature on Plato’s metaphilosophy. This studyfund identifies that the attitude of true philosophers towards body and itspleasures together with their care of the soul separate them from other wise humans,and that true philosophers are aware of the limits of human cognition andepistemic access. I conclude that the practice of philosophers is partly shapedby their recognition of the value of human knowledge and the deficiencies ofthis sort of knowledge.

N2  - Platon’un filozoflarnın pratiği üzerinedüşünceleri Batı’daki felsefe yapma biçimini oldukça etkilemiştir. Antik vemodern pek çok bilim insanı Platon’un felsefe anlayışını araştırmıştır. Bumakale Platon için doğru felsefe yapma biçiminin ne olduğunun anlaşılmasınadair bir başka girişimdir. Bu amaçla, Platon’un meta-felsefesi üzerine yapılmışçalışmalara katkı sağlamak için Platon’un Phaidon diyaloğunu inceleyeceğim. Buçalışma temelde şunları tespit eder: Hakiki filozofların bedene ve bedenselzevklere dair tavrı ile beraber ruha verdikleri değer pnları diğer bilgeinsanlardan ayırır ve hakiki filozoflar insan bilme yetisinin ve epistemikerişimin sınırlarının farkındadırlar. Bu bağlamda, filozoflarının pratiğiinsani bilginin değerini ve bu tarz bilgininin tam olamayacağınıkabullenmeleriyle kısmen şekillenmistir.
