Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.Plato (428/427 BC-348/347 BC), whose original name was Aristocles, was an ancient Greek philosopher, the second of the great trio of ancient Greeks - succeeding Socrates and preceding Aristotle - who between them laid the philosophical foundations of Western culture. Plato was also a mathematician, writer of philosophical dialogues, and founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the western world. Plato is widely believed to have been a student of Socrates and to have been deeply influenced by his teacher s unjust death. Plato s brilliance as a writer and thinker can be witnessed by reading his Socratic dialogues. Some of the dialogues, letters, and other works that are ascribed to him are considered spurious. Plato is thought to have lectured at the Academy, although the pedagogical function of his dialogues, if any, is not known with certainty. They have historically been used to teach philosophy, logic, rhetoric, mathematics, and other subjects about which he wrote. READ ONLINE [ 4.48 MB ] Reviews Good electronic book and valuable one.

1 THE AURIC TIME SCALE AND THE MAYAN FACTOR or Demography, Seismicity And History Of Great Revelations In The Light Of The Solar-Planetary Synchronism Sergey Smelyakov, Yuri Karpenko 2 Sergey V. Smelyakov, Professor, Ph.D., ISAR’s International Vice-President from Ukraine, Member of the Golden Fund of Cyclic Science of Russia and NIS Yuri Karpenko, M.E., Member of the Astrological Research Society “Hamburg School”, Member of Astrovita THE AURIC TIME SCALE AND THE MAYAN FACTOR: Demography, Seismicity and History of Great Revelations in the Light of the Solar-planetary Synchronism. - Kharkov, 1999 Corrections, 2004. The world is one and indivisible. But what can present its unity in num- ber, or specify the community (or synchronism) between such fundamental fea- tures of this Universe as periods of planetary revolutions and 11-year Solar ac- tivity cycle, trends in demography and the Mayan Calendar, the epochs of com- ing of Great Teachers of humanity, not speaking about geological, economical and other cycles in Nature and society? As it turns out, the historical structure of all these phenomena is syn- chronized by the Golden section number = 1.618 033 9… (or by Fibonacci series, as its integer presentation) and the average period T0 = 11.07 (years) of 11-year Solar activity cycles. This synchronism is described with the use of rather simple object – the Auric series, viz. a geometrical progression F = {… -2, -1, 0=1, 1, 2, …} being infinite to both ends, the unit 0=1 of which corresponds to the Earthy k k ¡ year, or to T0. For this series, the terms ¡ , 2· correspond [6] to most known basic periods in Nature and society (from biology to geology, including eco- nomical cycles), and in this sense the series F defines the Scale of the basic phenomena periods.

Yet, innovation is a political concept, first of all in the sense that it is a preoccupation of statesmen for centuries: innovation is regulated by Kings, forbidden by law and punished.

Plato's Philosophy of Education and the Common Core Debate
Plato’s Philosophy of Education and the Common Core debate Conference Paper Association for the Development of Philosophy Teaching (ADOPT) Spring Conference, Chicago, IL. De Paul University April 25, 2015 Madonna Murphy, Ph.D., University of St. Francis EDUCATION IN ANCIENT GREECE In Greece we find the origins of many of our educational policies and systems as it is the originating sources of Western civilization. Greek ideas about education and their educational practices have been very influential to other cultures. One of Rome's greatest service to mankind is that it carried the Greek tradition to all the Western lands. Greek civilization developed between 1200 and 490 B.C. It is in the Age of Pericles, around 500 B.C., that we see the first organized effort in a Western society for formal education. 1 The study of ancient Greek civilization provides valuable lessons on citizenship and civic education that illustrates the important role of education in shaping good citizens. Textual analysis of his various dialogues reveals Plato’s views on the purpose of education, what it is that should be taught to others and how the teacher should impart this knowledge. Plato’s educational thought illuminates many problems today’s educators face: Who are worthy models for children to imitate? How does education help to shape good citizenship? How does education serve humankind’s search for truth? In particular we will extrapolate Plato’s response the current common core debate. PLATO’S LIFE AND FAMILY We know about Plato and his family from the comments he makes in his dialogues.

Late Classical Period 404 to 338 B.C
LATE CLASSICAL PERIOD 404 TO 338 B.C. THIRTY TYRANTS IN ATHENS TO BATTLE OF CHAERONEA ERA SUMMARY – LATE CLASSICAL After the defeat of Athens at the end of the Peloponnesian War, Sparta became the undisputed first power among the Greek city-states. The walls of Athens were pulled down and the Spartan general Lysander appointed thirty men who were loyal to Sparta to run the city. The leaders were called the "thirty tyrants" and they put many of their political opponents, including Socrates to death. Plato was a student of Socrates and witnessed these oppressions and they greatly influenced his later writings. The period immediately after the Peloponnesian war is called the "Spartan Hegemony" because, although Sparta did not collect tribute, it allowed only governments which were friendly to Sparta to exist throughout Greece. The major figure of this period was Agesilaus, a brave and noble Spartan king who came very near to freeing all of the Greek Colonies in Asia Minor before he was recalled to deal with a political crisis at home. While Agesilaus was off fighting Persians in the east, the Spartan government had fallen into a great deal of trouble. The spoils from the successful wars had done much to corrupt Sparta; there was intrigue and infighting and wars with Corinth and Thebes. These problems combined with a significantly reduced population led to the disaster the Battle of Leuctra in 371 BC. Only 33 years after they prevailed in the Peloponnesian War, the Spartans suffered a humiliating defeat against Thebes, the first major land battle that the Spartans had lost to another Greek city-state in 500 years.

The Ancient Eurasian World and the Celestial Pivot
SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS Number 192 September, 2009 In and Outside the Square: The Sky and the Power of Belief in Ancient China and the World, c. 4500 BC – AD 200 Volume I: The Ancient Eurasian World and the Celestial Pivot by John C. Didier Victor H. Mair, Editor Sino-Platonic Papers Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, PA 19104-6305 USA [email protected] www.sino-platonic.org SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS is an occasional series edited by Victor H. Mair. The purpose of the series is to make available to specialists and the interested public the results of research that, because of its unconventional or controversial nature, might otherwise go unpublished. The editor actively encourages younger, not yet well established, scholars and independent authors to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions in any of the major scholarly languages of the world, including Romanized Modern Standard Mandarin (MSM) and Japanese, are acceptable. In special circumstances, papers written in one of the Sinitic topolects (fangyan) may be considered for publication. Although the chief focus of Sino-Platonic Papers is on the intercultural relations of China with other peoples, challenging and creative studies on a wide variety of philological subjects will be entertained. This series is not the place for safe, sober, and stodgy presentations. Sino-Platonic Papers prefers lively work that, while taking reasonable risks to advance the field, capitalizes on brilliant new insights into the development of civilization. The only style-sheet we honor is that of consistency. Where possible, we prefer the usages of the Journal of Asian Studies.

ȘCOALA Din ATENA
The SCHOOL of ATHENS The School of Athens, or Scuola di Atene in Italian, is one of the most famous frescoes by the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael. It was painted between 1509 and 1510. "Raphael received a hearty welcome from Pope Julius, and in the chamber of the Segnatura he painted... Aristotle and Plato, with the Ethics and Timaeus respectively, and a group of philosophers in a ring about them. Indescribably fine are those astrologers and geometricians drawing figures and characters with their sextants. $e further adorned his work with a perspective and many figures, so delicately and finely finished that Pope Julius caused all the other wor%s of the other masters, both old and new to be destroyed, that Raphael alone might have the glory of replacing what had been done.“ Giorgio Vasari, The Lives of the Most Excellent Architects, Painters, and Sculptors, 2nd edition, Forence, 1568 The School of Athens represents all the greatest mathematicians, philosophers and scientists from classical anti'uity gathered together sharing their ideas and learning from each other. hese "gures all lived at di(erent times, but here they are gathered together under one roof. The School of Athens is one of a group of four main frescoes on the walls of the Stan)a that depict distinct branches of knowledge. Commentators have suggested that nearly every great Greek philosopher can be found within the painting. Plato = da Vinci Aristotle = Giuliano da Sangallo $eraclit = Michelangelo Apelles = Raphael !n the centre of the fresco, at its architecture/s central vanishing point, are the two undisputed main subjects1 Plato on the left and Aristotle, his student, on the right.

World History Egypt(3000 BC) India(2500
World History Egypt(3000 BC) Early ancient Egypt was the first empire; it socio-politically tradition-bound and extremely conservative. Egyptians were the most tradition-bound people in the history of the world. They preferred tradition over change thinking that change for the sake of change is a principle of dubious merit. The Pharaohs agreed because that allowed them to keep their power. Egyptian society was organized hierarchically, with gods at the top, the Pharaohs beneath, humanity next, and the dead at the bottom. Pharaoh was a god-man. Egyptians excelled at agriculture and at immense construction projects such as the Great Pyramids. They spent their lives and fortunes preparing for death. India(2500 BC) The ten centuries about 2500 BC saw the rise and fall of an ancient river valley culture based on the Indus River. Classes of society in India dominated by the caste system to maintain order. Indian civilization is best known for the caste system, it hierarchical ordering of civilization. The caste system was helpful for controlling a massive society with vastly different socioeconomic classes. The caste system of: Brahmans (priests), Barons (warriors), Commoners (merchants), and Sudras (artisans and laborers). Mesopotamia(3500 BC) Mesopotamia is earliest human civilization; first to use written language. The Sumerians lived in lower Mesopotamia (Iraq) during the fourth and third millennia BC. Mesopotamia was placed between the rivers, Tigris river and Euphrates river. in lower Mesopotamia (Iraq) during the fourth and third millennia BC. China(221 BC) China built the Great Wall and employed Confucian doctrine in their governance. China unified in 221 BC.
