dc.description.abstractWhen we turn to Pre-Socratic philosophy in terms of the ontology of the non- being (m & ecirc; on), the concept appears to us in two aspects; as the subject of pure logic or physics. Non- being corresponds to a logical category that emerges in dialectical unity with being (to on) in pure logic, and to the void that makes the movement of the full body possible in the physical world, which is opposed to the full. In the first sense, the person who ignited the fuse of the discussions is Heraclitus. In the Heraclitian doctrine, the non- being, which forms a dialectical unity with the being, states the fact that things lose their identity in the world of formation and are no longer what they are. On the other hand, in the Eleatic doctrine led by Xenophanes, it emphasizes a logical category that manifests itself in absolute opposition to the being on the plane of pure logic in order to get rid of the linguistic paradoxes created by the world of formation that cannot maintain its identity. In the second sense, non- being is the expression of the void whose quality is corporeality and which makes the movement of being possible in discussions about the physical world, as it comes to the fore in the Atomist doctrine. It is hoped that the article, which focuses on the ontology of the non- being from these perspectives in Pre-Socratic philosophy from Heraclitus to Gorgias, will contribute especially to the readings of Plato and Aristotle, and to the discussions of negation and nothingness in modern philosophy.
