海德格對柏拉圖真理學說的闡釋展現出一個從哲學向神話的折返過程，這一折返是存在之思實施返回步伐的繼續。海德格向神話的折返是通過對古希臘文的翻譯（擺渡）和闡釋實現的，他通過翻譯「擺渡」出古希臘人對ἀλήθεια的「源初經驗」，通過闡釋揭示出柏拉圖思想中未曾被道說出來的關於真理的本質規定方面的一個轉變：從解蔽向理念，亦即從遮蔽與解蔽的爭執向正確性的轉變。為此他既將柏拉圖與古希臘開端性思想家嚴格區分開來，又高度重視柏拉圖的神話傳說對開端，即存在真理遮蔽本質的保存，在將哲學擺渡回神話的過程中，海德格完成其語言學轉向，將其存在之思置於哲學與神話兩大經驗領域。

The Heidegger’s interpretation of Plato’s doctrine of truth shows a transition from philosophy to myths. This transition is a continuation of the pace of return to Greek carried out by Heidegger. Heidegger carried out the return of philosophy to myth through the translation of ancient Greek and interpretation. Heidegger brings out the “primordial experience” of aletheia of the ancient Greeks through translation, and reveals a transformation in the determinations of essence of truth that was not spoken of in Plato’s thought, namely, the thesis that in Plato there occurred a change from truth as unconcealment to truth as correctness. So, he not only strictly distinguishes Plato from the ancient Greek inception thinkers, but also attaches great importance to Plato's myths and legends on the conservation of the concealment as the essence of Being. Definitely, in the process of transporting philosophy back to myths, Heidegger completed his linguistic turn and successfully placed the problem of Being in two empirical fields: philosophy and myths.
