Extractions: In order to give their new ideas a firmer foundation, and to be persuasive to their patients, many of the writers of the Hippocratic treatises turned to the writings of the Presocratic philosophers, men who sought to explain the nature of the cosmos and the things in it in terms of natural entities and non-personal forces (today we would call these men natural scientists). Other Hippocratic writers vehemently opposed this trend, holding to what they saw as an uncompromising empiricism, based solely on experience, not on theory. Their debate underlies many of the Hippocratic treatises, influencing not only content but also the form of argumentation, which makes it important to consider this philosophical background briefly. In the following discussion, the fragments of the Presocratics are translated from the Greek text found in the standard source, H.Diels and W.Kranz, Die Fragmente der Vorsokratiker, 6th edition, 1954, and identified with their Diels-Kranz number, abbreviated as DK). A useful source book for further background is G.S.Kirk, J.E.Raven and M. Schofield, The Presocratic Philosophers, 1983. According to tradition, Thales, a native of the Ionian east Greek city of Miletus (in modern Turkey), was the first of the Presocratic philosophers. Miletus was a large and cosmopolitan city, with long-standing trading connections with the states of the ancient Near East. He himself was probably of mixed ancestry (his family is said to have been originally Phoenician, and, like many Ionians, he probably also had an admixture of local Carians in his family tree). He is reported to have assisted the Lydian king Croesus in his war against the Persians, and predicted an eclipse that put an end to a great battle in 585. Thus he was probably active not much before the beginning of the seventh century.

Extractions: Rutgers, Spring 2000 Throughout the history of mathematics, one of the most enduring challenges has been the calculation of the ratio between a circle's circumference and diameter, which has come to be known by the Greek letter pi . From ancient Babylonia to the Middle Ages in Europe to the present day of supercomputers, mathematicians have been striving to calculate the mysterious number. They have searched for exact fractions, formulas, and, more recently, patterns in the long string of numbers starting with 3.14159 2653..., which is generally shortened to 3.14. William L. Schaaf once said, "Probably no symbol in mathematics has evoked as much mystery, romanticism, misconception and human interest as the number pi" (Blatner, 1). We will probably never know who first discovered that the ratio between a circle's circumference and diameter is constant, nor will we ever know who first tried to calculate this ratio. The people who initiated the hunt for pi were the Babylonians and Egyptians, nearly 4000 years ago. It is not clear how they found their approximation for pi, but one source (Beckman) makes the claim that they simply made a big circle, and then measured the circumference and diameter with a piece of rope. They used this method to find that

Extractions: "Substance and Definition in Aristotles Metaphysics Z" Greg Bayer St. Johns College, Santa Fe One problem in deciphering Aristotles discussion of substance in Metaphysics Z arises in Zs very first sentence, where substance is characterized both in terms of ti esti and tode ti . Substance considered as the formeri.e., an entity answering the question "What is it?"would seem to amount to an equivalence of substance with essence or form. Regarding a given substance as "a this," on the other hand, places it at the level of hekasta , "particulars," like "this horse" or "this man"the primary substance of the Categories . How can substance be both? Metaphysics Z, in light of Aristotles discussion of explanatory definition in the Posterior Analytics . In APo II.10 two sorts of definitions are distinguished: the definition identifying a certain thing to be explained, and the aitia , or "explanatory principle," accounting for the things existence. Metaphysics Z.17 shows how the different notions of substance can be reconciled, by regarding the

He got his notion from this fact, and from the fact that the seeds of all things have a moist nature, and that water is the origin of the nature of moist things. Some think that even the ancients who lived long before the present generation, and first framed accounts of the gods, had a similar view of nature; for they made Ocean and Tethys the parents of creation, and described the oath of the gods as being by water, to which they give the name of Styx; for what is oldest is most honourable, and the most honourable thing is that by which one swears. It may perhaps be uncertain whether this opinion about nature is primitive and ancient, but Thales at any rate is said to have declared himself thus about the first cause. Hippo no one would think fit to include among these thinkers, because of the paltriness of his thought. Anaximenes and Diogenes make air prior to water, and the most primary of the simple bodies, while Hippasus of Metapontium and Heraclitus of Ephesus say this of fire, and Empedocles says it of the four elements (adding a fourth-earth-to those which have been named); for these, he says, always remain and do not come to be, except that they come to be more or fewer, being aggregated into one and segregated out of one.

The principles of reason cannot be proven, since in order to prove anything you need to have a starting point, and a starting point is a principle. It is impossible for a proof or demonstration to go on forever ( regressus ad infinitum infinite regress!). Although you cannot prove the validity of a principle, it can be demonstrated indirectly, by showing that if you accept the opposite, the result is an untenable absurdity.

Newsletters NEWS FROM CLAZOMENAE November 1999 Our Dear Friends and Supporters, Though squeezed to the right edge of the frame, immediately attracts our attention a light house, at the farthest point of the break water. Beholding its cupola, we realize that we are in an East Mediterranean port. The wooden vessel with a large bulge amidst the frame sounds as if to weigh anchor for the high seas tracing the wake of the Argonauts. There lies in the harbor a range of amphorae filled with olive oil, emphasizing the significance of sea trade for these men of humble riches in all ages. And the fishing boats with the sea gulls turning above them to enjoy their shares The archaeological excavations in Clazomenae, one of the tiny and modest cities of Ionia, have been advancing without dreaming to find any magnificient buildings, palaces constructed of marble, and gold jewelry. We are excavating the world of the poor. Yet, under the earth lies the world of the natural scientists, the pioneers of the positive thinking, such as Heracleitos of Ephesus, Anaxagoras of Clazomenae and Thales of Miletus, who precalculated the total eclipse of the sun on May 28, 585 B.C., nearly 2500 years ago from now, just like an identical natural phenomenon observed recently in todays Anatolia. In each hoeing of the soil, we better understand the world of the people who make policy, as we use the term today and possessed their lands as the equal and free citizens of the city states they lived in, and of the individuals who accepted democracy for the first time as a way of life and the painters, sculptures, architects and of the immortal poets like Homer.

Extractions: Anaxagoras (499-428 v.C.) was een rijke man die zijn bezittingen verwaarloosde om zich volledig aan de wetenschap over te geven. Toen iemand hem vroeg wat de reden van het bestaan was, antwoordde hij: "Om de zon, maan en hemel te onderzoeken". In 480 v.C. verhuisde hij naar Athene waar hij filosofie introduceerde. Hij raakte bevriend met Pericles, de heerser van Athene. Pericles' vijanden probeerden hem aan te vallen door zijn vrienden. Ze klaagden Anaxagoras aan voor goddeloosheid, omdat hij had beweerd dat de zon een hete steen en de maan aardeachtig was. Hij werd in de gevangen genomen. In de gevangenis zou hij gewerkt hebben aan de oplossing van een aantal meetkundige problemen. Andere bronnen meldden overigens dat hij verbannen werd, hoe het ook zij uiteindelijk verhuisde hij naar Lampsacus waar hij stierf.

Extractions: [Clazomenae, 500-428 BC] Anaxagoras was born in Clazomenae at the coast of Asia Minor around 500 BC. He spent much of his life in Athens, where he was associated with Pericles, the leading statesman of the age, and with Euripides, the writer of tragedies. At the time of the two Persian wars (490 BC and 480 BC) the greatness of Athens was at its peak after the city was victorious two times and gained great prestige in Greece. A golden age started; the city became rich and prospered under the wise leadership of Pericles, who governed, by the free choice of its citizens, for about thirty years until his fall in 430 BC. "Pericles fell in, it seems with Anaxagoras, who was a scientific man; and satiating himself with the theory of things on high, and having attained to a knowledge of the true nature of intellect and folly, which were just what the discourses of Anaxagoras were mainly about, he drew from that source whatever was of a nature to further him in the art of speech." (Plato about Anaxagoras). With his fall of Pericles' government, Anaxagoras was urged to leave Athens. He fled to Lampsacus in the Troad where he died, an honored guest, in 428 BC. Anaxagoras is said to have written only one book. As a follower of the old Milesian school he tried to revive the thoughts of Anaximenses in the post-Parmenidean period. Anaxagoras agreed with Empedocles that all coming into and going out of being is merely the composition and decomposition of existing substances, but he rejected Empedocles' Love and Strife theory, probably because there was no scientific reason that spoke for it.
