C. by the Megarians on the Bithynian coast, opposite the place where a little later Byzantium rose. It was captured by the Persian general Otanes after the expedition of Darius against the Scythians.

Extractions: Xenocrates nasceu aproximadamente em 396 AC em Chalcedon (atualmente Turquia). Ele foi discípulo de Platão, juntando-se à Academia aproximadamente em 376 AC, e chefiando a Academia aproximadamente em 340 AC. O trabalho principal de Xenocrates consistiu aparentemente na classificação da filosofia de Platão. Xenocrates concordou com Pythagoras na importância dos números. Acredita-se que ele tenha escrito dois livros, nenhum dos quais sobreviveu: On Numbers , e The Theory of Numbers Xenocrates propôs originalmente a teoria atômica, acreditando que todas as coisas eram compostas de unidades indivisíveis. Para os estudantes de probabilidade, Xenocrates é importante por causa da sua formulação de um dos primeiros problemas de análise combinatória: computando o número de sílabas que poderiam ser construídas com as letras do alfabeto. De acordo com Plutarco a solução de Xenocrates alcançava 1.002.000.000.000 (um trilhão) de sílabas. Para retornar ao índice geral de biografias:

Extractions: ENCYCLOPEDIA Philosophy, Biographies Xenocrates Related Category: Philosophy, Biographies Xenocrates [z n t z] Pronunciation Key B.C. , Greek philosopher, b. Chalcedon, successor of Speusippus as head of the Academy . He was a disciple of Plato, whom he accompanied to Sicily in 361 B.C. His ascetic life and noble character greatly influenced his pupils. He was the first to divide philosophy into dialectic (or logic), physics, and ethics, the latter two being his principal themes. He held that mathematical objects and the Platonic Ideas are both substances, and both identical, causing Aristotle to say of him that he "made ideal and mathematical number the same." His Platonic ethics taught that virtue produces happiness, although external goods can contribute. Only fragments of his work survive.

Extractions: Julius Africanus, under the emperor Marcus Aurelius Antonius, was the first among us to compose, using a simple style of history, a brief chronology organized according to generations and reigns. From there, Bishop Eusebius of Caesaria and the priest Jerome of holy memory edited a multipart history of the canons of chronicles organized according to reigns and times. After these came others, in particular, Bishop Victor of Tunnunna who, having reviewed the histories of the previous times, filled out the deeds of succeeding ages up to the consolate of Justin the Younger. We have recorded here, as briefly as we were able, a summary of the times from the beginning of the world up to the principates of the emperor Heraclius and of King Sisebut of the Goths, laying down, bit by bit, the descending order of times, so that, by means of the information provided, the whole of the past ages might be known. 1. God created everything in six days. On the first day he fashioned light; on the second, the firmament of heaven; on the third, the land and the sea; on the fourth, the stars; on the fifth, the fish and the birds; on the sixth, the animals and the beasts of burden and finally the first man, Adam, in his image. 2. Adam, at age 230, bore Seth, who was born in the place of Abel. Seth means "resurrection" because in him was resuscitated the first seed, that is, the seed of the sons of God. Seth, at age 205, bore Enosh, who was the first to begin invoking the name of God. Enosh, at age 190, bore Kenan, whose name means "the nature of God." At the same time, Cain became the first, before the flood, to build a city, which he filled solely with the multitude of his own descendents.

He spoke so well, it was said, that a drunk young man, Polemon, was so impressed by Xenocrates speaches that he immediately became sober for the rest of his life, started studying under the philosopher and eventually became his successor as headmaster of the Academy.

Extractions: As a general, he was sent to lead an expedition to Sicily where a Greek town needed help. On his way there, he was sent for by the Athenians, who wanted him to return immediately to face charges of vandalisation and sacrilege. On the night before his departure, almost all Hermes statues in Athens had been damaged and the Athenians suspected that Alcibiades and his party lay behind this after a drunken last night in town. Also, they had satirised the Eleusinian Mysteries, which was considered severe blasphemy.
