Gorgias
Gorgias is regraded to be Master of rhetoric.
Gorgias was highly influenced by the works of Zeno and Protagoras.
His book, “On Nature or the Non-existent,” laid down the three most important tenants of his philosophical. They three tenants are; 

There is Nothing
Even if there is anything, it cannot be known.
Knowledge cannot be communicated
1. There is Nothing:
According to Gorgias, if there exists anything, it can only be known to us via perception.
Perception tells us that everything has come into being from its earlier state. This means, things have arisen either from being or from non-being. But, he says the world of becoming cannot come out from an unchanging being and at the same time, nothing can arise from non-being. So, there is nothing in the world. 
2. Even if there is Anything, it cannot be Known:
The second tenant of Gorgias says that, “even if there is anything, we cannot know it.” A perceived object is not the external object in itself, nor is the perceiving act. Hence, we do not know what the real objects are. 

3. Knowledge cannot be Communicated:
According to Gorgias, as we have established before knowledge is perception and perception is true for the perceiver alone and that also on the moment of its occurrence. so, we cannot communicate knowledge. #ugcnet #doorsteptutor #examrace
