Nearly all the surviving works of Zeno of Elea are mere paraphrases and discussions of his thoughts on the part of later authors. Nevertheless, analysis of all relevant sources does lead to plausible hypotheses about the proper meaning of the “Paradoxes of plurality” (Frag. B1–3) and the “Paradox of place” (Frag. B5). It lends a new perspective to Zeno’s importance for the intellectual history of the 5th and 4th centuries BC.
