Annotated Bibliography for Catastrophism: Astronomy, Archaeoastronomy, and Ethnoastronomy Allen, Richard Hinckley. Star Names, Their Lore and Meaning. Dover Publications Inc., New York, 1963. Allen's book was originally published in 1899 under the title Star Names and Their Meanings. Allen provides a history of the literary and mythological uses of the stars and constellations, including the history of the lunar and solar zodiacs, the legends associated with various constellations and star groups, and the history of astrology. Since the original publication of this book predates important astronomical discoveries from the Near and Far East, it is rather dated. However, the discussions are still enjoyable. Aveni, Anthony F. Skywatchers of Ancient Mexico. University of Texas Press, Austin, Texas, 1980. Aveni provides a good overview of Pre-Columbian astronomy in Mesoamerica. It is useful to compare Aveni's treatment of the Venus observations in the Dresden codex with his later much more illuminating interpretations in Conversing with the Planets . Aveni notes that a number of Mesoamerican buildings were constructed with Venus orientations which indicate that the orbit of Venus was the same as at present in the first and second millenia A.D., contrary to expectations of some Velikovskians that Venus might still be settling into its current orbit after an extended period as a "comet."

Back to "From Myth to Mind" : The Presocratic Philosophers From Diogenes Laertius Lives of the Eminent Philosophers (Vol. I) trans. R.D. Hicks, Cambridge, Massachusetts, Harvard, 1972] I. On Cleobulus (c 600 B.C.): "Cleobulus, the son of Euagoras, was born at Lindus, but according to Duris he was a Carian. Some say that he traced his descent back to Heracles, that he was distinguished for strength and beauty, and was acquainted with Egyptian philosophy. He had a daughter Cleobuline, who composed riddles in hexameters; she is mentioned by Cratinus, who gives one of his plays her name, in the plural form Cleobulinae. He is also said to have rebuilt the temple of Athena which was founded by Danaus. He was the author of songs and riddles, making some 3000 lines in all. The inscription on the tomb of Midas is said by some to be his: I am a maiden of bronze and I rest upon Midas's tomb. So long as water shall flow and tall trees grow, and the sun shall rise and shine, and the bright moon, and rivers shall run and the sea wash the shore, here abiding on his tear-sprinkled tomb I shall tell the passers-by - Midas is buried here. The evidence they adduce is a poem of Simonides in which he says: Who, if he trusts his wits, will praise Cleobulus the dweller at Lindus for opposing the strength of a column to ever-flowing rivers, the flowers of spring, the flame of the sun, and the golden moon and the eddies of the sea? But all things fall short of the might of the gods; even mortal hands break marble in pieces; this is a fool's devising.

63. Faith And Reason In The Middle Ages Aquinas also considered the heliocentric theories of heraclides of pontus andAristarchus of Samos, only to reject them by Aristotelian arguments. (131). http://www.drury.edu/ess/philsci/faithreason.html

Faith and Reason in the Middle Ages (Alioto, Ch.. 9, "The Errors of the Philosophers") Comments on Averroes and his prefiguring the doctrine of the two-fold truth Faith and Reason - three options: Two-fold truth Philosophy (including natural science) as the Handmaiden of Theology Complementarity - Aquinas Ess's Summary: the role of religious frameworks in the development of natural philosophy from the PreSocratics through the Middle Ages Note how theological problems result in conceptual Debate over "consubstantiation" - vs. Aristotle's insistence on substance/accident metaphysics. Averroes (ibn Rushd: b. 1126) "...made no effort to reconcile Aristotle with his [Muslim] orthodoxy, nor did his reason bow down before his faith." Rather, he seems to have kept the two distinct in a way which prefigures the Western Medieval doctrine of the double-truth: "two incompatible assertions are held to be true at the same time." (127) [Also possible, however, that he did not hold to such a doctrine. Rather, in a document made known to the West only in the 19th ct., "...he posited three types of people: the masses who accept the authority and literal word of Scripture, the theologians who are satisfied with probably arguments, and the scientists who require the absolute demonstrations of reason. The latter he warned to keep their demonstrations to themselves, lest they destroy the faith of the former. The purpose of revelation is to teach right practice and knowledge of God. On the other hand, the duty of the elite is to remain silent, refraining from allegorical interpretations which serve only to confuse the undisciplined and the uneducated." (127)]

ISBN 0-19-508815-8. Reviewed by Lee T. Pearcy, The Episcopal Academy, LTPearcy@ea.pvt.k12.pa.us. [We wish to apologize to the author for the long delay in publishing his review. The Editors] Philodemus of Gadara seems about to join Callimachus, Posidonius, and a few others in the ranks of Greek intellectuals who must be included in any understanding of Roman poetry in the first century B.C. He can be found on the Web (http://www.humnet.ucla.edu/humnet/classics/home.html) and on p. 185 of Steven Saylor's latest novel ( The Venus Throw, 1995). In addition to the book under review here, Dirk Obbink has also recently given us a translation of Marcello Gigante's Philodemus in Italy: The Books from Herculaneum (Ann Arbor 1995). It is beginning to be possible for students of Latin poetry and Roman intellectual culture in the first century B.C. to bring Philodemus into their account of that world; in a few years, it will be impossible to leave him out. This new picture of Philodemus has emerged from papyri so charred in the destruction of Herculaneum that their eighteenth-century excavators at first mistook them for lumps of coal. To be read, these rolls had first to be dismantled and in the process, largely destroyed. After 200 years, the labor of generations of scholars and technicians has begun to produce readable texts from the records and remains of that destruction. Much of their labor has been a matter of restoring the original rolls by putting things in their proper sequence; it may be fitting, therefore, to suggest that the chapters of Philodemus and Poetry may best be read in a sequence other than that in which they appear between its covers.

Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2002.12.04 Michael von Albrecht, John Dillon, Michael Lurje, Martin George, David S. du Toit, Jamblich. Pythagoras: Legende - Lehre - Lebensgestaltung . Darmstadt: Wissenschaftliche Buchgesellshaft, 2002. Pp. 352. ISBN 3-534-14945-9. EUR 31.00. Word count: 1973 words The book contains the Greek text of Iamblichus' Vita Pythagorica ANRW II 36.2. Here he abandons the idea that the teacher of Iamblichus was a certain Anatolius who taught Peripatetic philosophy in Alexandria in the 260s and later on became bishop of Laodicea in Syria. The reference in Eunapius' Vit. Soph. Vita Pythagorica was to introduce us to a systematic understanding of Pythagorean philosophy, as Iamblichus conceived it some hundred years after Pythagoras' death. The title itself also suggests that Iamblichus was interested not so much in the actual life of Pythagoras as in a way of life according to the principles of his philosophy. The translation is accurate and reads well. The annotations are confined to the most necessary, mainly textual, data, which is forgivable since the subsequent essays provide us with all sorts of information. Just a small query. Is the general discussion of temperance found in Section 34, as note 131 claims? The subject-matter is discussed in Sections 68-69 as well. Lurje discusses the text as a manifesto of Neoplatonic paideia. He intends to prove that in discussing the main lines of Pythagoreanism Iamblichus' aim was to introduce his audience into his own philosophy. Pythagoras thus turned into a guide to Platonism; indeed, he took up a role well attested in Plato's

It is rewarding, for the treks if found contribute greatly to our understanding of philosophic paths of the individual figures, especially when direct evidence, and this is usually the case, is scarce and scattered all over different sources. But on the other hand, detective search for clues in order to highlight possible sources of a given author is a dangerous adventure which may easily lead to misunderstanding. For oblique clues and ‘striking similarities’ while (given limited amount of evidence) prove nothing, can turn search in a direction which brings the whole thing to the dead end.

History of Science Dates are given only so you can see the chronology. You will not be required to memorize specific dates, but you will be expected to have some idea of the chronology involved because what is important here is the context in which discoveries and/or speculations were made. What people see and how they interpret it is colored by their point of view. This has also led to and fueled much controversy in certain areas of science. Thus, the goal here is to understand the “evolution” of our scientific ( scientia = to know) thought and knowledge: to be aware of the social, psychological, etc. factors influencing our interpretation of the data or how we think about things. Because our current knowledge of biology is so broad, we cannot cover the history of it all, but rather, need to focus on one area to illustrate how our thought processes change. For a topic, then, we’ll use “Where did we come from?” What is the earliest civilization of which you can think? Of what other early civilizations have you heard? What do you think they knew about biology? Do you think they studied biology as a separate science as we do? While much was also discovered by the ancient Chinese, Native American, and other civilizations, who in many respects are much more in tune with the world around them than “us,” for now, we will limit discussion to the thought processes and discoveries that led to the understanding developed by “western” culture. Human knowledge of biology began with prehistoric people and their experiences with edible vs. inedible, or even poisonous, plants, habits of animals and how best to capture them, etc. This information was verbally passed on to the next generation. People knew about medicinal and poisonous plants and knew that a heartbeat meant that someone or some animal was alive. They knew that babies were in some way connected with sexual intercourse.

Christian Churches of God PO Box 369, WODEN ACT 2606, AUSTRALIA Email: secretary@ccg.org 2000, 2001 Wade Cox) This paper is available from the World Wide Web page: http://www.logon.org and http://www.ccg.org The Soul The biblical position on the Soul is a clear and simple doctrine, which has been altered by syncretism within the early Church. The position of the religious systems generally has become one that asserts that the soul is eternal. This is not the true biblical position. The development of the so-called Christian view and its relationship to the biblical view has been examined. The Soul and the Bible As discussed in Cox, Creation (No. B5): From Anthropomorphic Theology to Theomorphic Anthropology , the concept of the existence of a soul as an entity after death has been a constant theme arising from Babylonian Animism, i.e. from Chaldean theology. The concept is logically polytheist. The Bible states quite categorically that the dead remain so until the resurrection, either the first or second resurrection. Nobody has been resurrected other than Christ; the others of the elect are fallen asleep (1Thes. 4:13-18). But the dead will be raised:

Oswald Office Hours: TR 5:00 - 6:00 p.m. Office: COB rm. #259 Phone: 664-2465/2460 E-Mail: doswald@csubak.edu COURSE DESCRIPTION This course examines the pre-modern economies of the West from the ancient Greeks up to the dawn of the industrial revolution in the eighteenth century. It attempts to highlight in what ways those economies were or were not modern and to explain those differences that existed in the context of the cultures within which they were embedded. The course also examines the ideas that people used before Adam Smith to understand their economic world. Finally, it explores how those ideas dramatically changed during the course of the scientific revolution and how that transformation in thought helped to give rise to the political economy of Adam Smith.

Famous Lovers from times past pre 1000 AD 'The mightiest kings have had their minions: Great Alexander loved Hephaestion; The conquering Hercules for Hylas wept; And for Patroclus stern Achilles drooped; And not kings only, but the wisest men: The Roman Tully loved Octavius; Grave Socrates wild Alcibiades.' Christopher Marlowe's Edward II "Love is a desire of contracting friendship arising from the beauty of the object" Cicero The great Roman orator 106 BC -43 BC and a wealthy book-seller. King of Persia and his eunuch. Two devoted Athenian friends. The young and beautiful Harmodius' sister was insulted by the tyrant Hippias' brother and co-ruler Hipparchus. Possibly provoked by Hipparchus sexual approaches to the youth. The lovers decided to kill him at the festival of Panathenaea in 514 B.C. They succeeded but both died and were honoured as martyrs. They have been credited with the overthrow of tyranny in Athens. However it was pride and jealousy not democracy which motivated them. ( Polydeuces): The Spartan wrestler and boxer, sons of Leda; Castor to a mortal father and Polydeuces to Zeus . They were members of the Argonauts. Both were killed in battle but because of the love for one another Polydeuces refused heaven without his beloved brother, so Zeus allowed them to alternate each day, one in heaven and one beneath the earth.

Greek Heraclides of Heraclea Pontus (ca. 388-315 BC) Greek philosopher who was the first to suggest that the rotation of the Earth would account for the apparent rotation of the stars. Until fairly recently, it was believed that Heraclides kept a geocentric universe but suggested that Mercury and Venus orbited the Sun (Heliocentric theories were rejected at the time of Heraclides because it was believed that the rotation of the Earth would cause falling bodies to be deflected westward.) However, Lindberg (1992) gives a wealth of recent references which clearly indicate that Heraclides's theories never espoused a heliocentrism.

Whatever may be the truth about these stories, Heracides seems to have been a versatile and prolific writer on philosophy, mathematics, music, grammar, physics, history and rhetoric. Many of the works attributed to him, however, are probably by one or more persons of the same name. The extant fragment of a treatise On Constitutions (C.W.

According to Suidas , Plato, on his departure for Sicily , left his pupils in charge of Heraclides. The latter part of his life was spent at Heraclea. He is said to have been vain and fat, and to have been so fond of display that he was nicknamed Pompicus , or the Showy (unless the epithet refers to his literary style). Various idle stories are related about him. On one occasion, for instance, Heraclea was afflicted with famine, and the Pythian priestess at Delphi , bribed by Heraclides, assured his inquiring townsmen that the dearth would be stayed if they granted a golden crown to that philosopher. This was done; but just as Heraclides was receiving his honour in a crowded assembly, he was seized with

Astronomia Antiga As especulações sobre a natureza do Universo devem remontar aos tempos pré-históricos, por isso a astronomia é frequentemente considerada a mais antiga das ciências. Desde a antiguidade, o céu vem sendo usado como mapa, calendário e relógio. Os registros astronômicos mais antigos datam de aproximadamente 3000 a.C. e se devem aos chineses, babilônios, assírios e egípcios. Naquela época, os astros eram estudados com objetivos práticos, como medir a passagem do tempo (fazer calendários) para prever a melhor época para o plantio e a colheita, ou com objetivos mais relacionados à astrologia, como fazer previsões do futuro, já que acreditavam que os deuses do céu tinham o poder da colheita, da chuva e mesmo da vida. Vários séculos antes de Cristo, os chineses sabiam a duração do ano e usavam um calendário de 365 dias. Deixaram registros de anotações precisas de cometas, meteoros e meteoritos desde 700 a.C. Mais tarde, também observaram as estrelas que agora chamamos de novas. Os babilônios, assírios e egípcios também sabiam a duração do ano desde épocas pré-cristãs. Em outras partes do mundo, evidências de conhecimentos astronômicos muito antigos foram deixadas na forma de monumentos, como o de Stonehenge, na Inglaterra, que data de 2500 a 1700 a.C.
