  • Being Suneches, Being Continuous, Is a Central Notion in Aristotle
    1 The notion of continuity in Parmenides1 1. Introduction: Being suneches, being continuous, is a central notion in Aristotle’s Physics, and of crucial importance for understanding time, space, and motion within Aristotle’s framework. In this paper I want to show that continuity is, however, already of crucial philosophical significance in Parmenides, who seems to be the first thinker in the West to use the notion of continuity in a philosophically interesting and systematic way. But Parmenides uses it in a way that is importantly different from Aristotle with opposing implications. The notion of suneches itself has not attracted much attention from Parmenides scholars (even though the passages in which Parmenides talks about suneches have, and their understanding is highly disputed).2 What I will do in this paper is to look first in some detail at the three passages in fragment 8 of Parmenides’ poem that are of crucial importance for Parmenides’ notion of being suneches before comparing it briefly to Aristotle’s notion. An analysis of these three passages in Parmenides will show that suneches for Parmenides implies complete homogeneity and indivisibility. The three passages I look at are (1) fragment 8, lines 5-6a, where Parmenides calls what is (eon) “suneches” for the first time and links being suneches and being homou (‘being together’). (2) Lines 22-25 show being suneches to exclude differences in kind as well as any more or less. (3) Lines 42-49, finally, even though not using the word “suneches”, can be understood as taking up the discussion of conditions that would prevent eon from being suneches and as systematizing these conditions.

  • Creativity, Wisdom, and Our Evolutionary Future
    ARTICLE .19 Creativity, Wisdom, and Our Evolutionary Future Thomas Lombardo Center for Future Consciousness USA Abstract In this paper I develop an integrative theoretical framework for understanding creativity, synthesizing themes and principles derived from mythology and philosophy, the physical and biological sciences, psycholo- gy, social and economic history, technology, and art and the study of beauty. I demonstrate how the creative process is integral to natural and human evolution and how human creativity builds upon creative evolution in nature. Further, I describe the relationship between creativity and both heightened future consciousness and wisdom, arguing that the latter two capacities clearly embody a creative dimension and form the leading edge of the future evolution of the human mind. Keywords: Creativity, creation, mythology, evolution, psychology, Gestalt, holism, technology, beauty, future consciousness, wisdom, self-organization, order and chaos, complexity Introduction "The ultimate metaphysical ground is the creative advance into novelty". Alfred North Whitehead In this paper I develop an integrative theoretical framework for understanding creativity, syn- thesizing themes and principles derived from mythology and philosophy, the physical and biologi- cal sciences, psychology, social and economic history, technology, and art and the study of beauty.

Journal of Futures Studies, September 2011, 16(1): 19 - 46 Journal of Futures Studies The theoretical framework presented is ontologically balanced, incorporating both the mental and physical sides of the creative process, and addressing both individual and collective dimensions within creativity.

This work is protected against unauthorized copying under Title 17, United States Code. ProQuest LLC 789 East Eisenhower Parkway P.O. Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis examines the earliest extended collections of recipes preserved in Greek, the recipes of the so-called Hippocratic Corpus (late fifth or early fo^rrA century BC). I study the ways and formats in which pharmacological knowledge was transmitted in classical Greece. The compilers of the Hippocratic collections of recipes drew on a variety of sources, written and oral, including small catalogues of recipes comparable to those found on papyri from Hellenistic Egypt. Much pharmacological knowledge may have been transmitted orally from generation to generation before assuming written form in medical treatises. But following the social anthropologist Jack Goody, I distinguish between the medical knowledge the recipes reflect and the written form in which they have been transmitted. I also assess the socio-economic context in which the recipes were produced and used.

Four inter pretive theses now seem quite widely shared: (a) Parmenides deliberately sup presses the subject of esti, "is," or einai, "to be," in his statement of the two "routes" in B2, his intention being to allow the subject to become gradually specified as the argument unfolds, (b) The negative route, ouk esti, "is not," or trie einai, "not to be," is banned because sentences that adhere to it fail to refer (semantically speaking) to actual entities?the latter to be understood broadly, as will shortly be stated in thesis (d).

  • Lonergan Workshop, Vol. 8
    LONERGAN WORKSHOP Volume 8 LONERGAN WORKSHOP Volume 8 edited by Fred Lawrence Copyright © 1990 Boston College ISSN 0148-2009 Scholars Press Atlanta, Georgia Printed in the United States of America on acid-free paper 11 Editor's Note Once again Patrick Byrne leads off this journal devoted to Lonergan's Insight thirty years after its publication in 1957. Pat's wide-ranging article demonstrates the normative continuity of the history of the idea of nature from Aristotle down to contemporary science. Complementary to Pat's piece is one of the very clearest contributions Joseph Flanagan, SJ, has ever made to this journal, on chapters 1-5, commonly deemed the most difficult in Insight. For over a decade now Joe has been teaching a year-long course on Insight to graduate students in philosophy and theology at Boston College, and here we readers reap the benefits of pedagogical learn­ ing which he been building up over the years. Sebastian Moore, OSB, a perennial contributor to the journal, is involved here with two articles. The first is in collaboration with recently graduated doctoral student, Glenn 'Chip' Hughes, who has completed a dissertation on Eric Voegelin. Unsurprisingly, their piece focuses on the centrality of the role of judgment to the process of the critique of culture, and the need to critique the overwhelming neglect of judgment in Western culture. Taking off from Saul Friedlander's reflections of Kitsch, Sebastian and Chip cast new and extremely helpful light on the operation of judgment. The other article, in which Sebastian articulates his most explanatory psychology of soteriology to date, is a rich harvest of ideas long in the making.

In Classical antiquity, the Presocratic philosophers were called physiologoi (in English, physical or natural philosophers).[1] Diogenes Laërtius divides the physiologoi into two groups, Ionian and Italiote, led by Anaximander and Pythagoras, respectively.[2] Hermann Diels popularized the term pre-socratic in Die Fragmente der Vorsokratiker (The Fragments of the Pre-Socratics) in 1903.

  • Illinois Classical Studies
    Anaxagoras and Infinite Divisibility BRAD INWOOD In 1957 John Raven announced that no one ever disputed the claim that "Anaxagoras really believed in the infinite divisibility of matter."' No doubt he was right about that, and Raven like all his predecessors and most of his successors proceeded to interpret Anaxagoras' com- plex and vaguely expressed theory of matter on the assumption .that one central feature of it was the infinite divisibility of particles of matter. But times change, and we live in a more skeptical age. Malcolm Schofield^ has recently challenged the claim that Anaxagoras used a notion of infinite divisibility in his theory of matter. Unfortunately, Schofield's skepticism is uncharacteristically timid here, and he never provides a clear statement of his reasons for questioning the traditional view, nor attempts a demonstration of its weakness or a sketch of what the theory of matter would look like without this venerable fixed point. Schofield restricts himself to redescribing it as "unlimited smallness"^ and pointing out that "infinite divisibility" is not an expression which represents ideas in which Anaxagoras shows an interest. Jonathan Barnes' recent discussion of Anaxagorean physics'* ' Philosophers; first P. 377 in G. S. Kirk and J. E. Raven, The Presocratic edition, Cambridge 1957. In the second edition (1983, with additional material by Malcolm Schofield), this claim is not altered (p. 367). - An Essay on Anaxagoras (Cambridge 1980). ' P. 79. But infinite divisibility returns on p. 81. ^ In The Presocratic Philosophers, vol. 2 (London 1979). There is little change in the second edition (in one volume, 1982). 18 Illinois Classical Studies, XI fills some of the gaps.

Prof. Dr. Herbert Hrachovec PLATO ON REIFICATION AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY Odin Kroeger Acknowledgements This work would not have been written without the advice and support of many people. I want to thank: Herbert Hrachovec for his feedback, giving me the opportunity to present my theses at the Cyberspace 2010, and reading and commenting on my work within a narrow time frame that was my fault; Ulrike Mayer for having done more for me than words can do justice; Karin Kuchler for her thorough and merciless feedback; Linda Kreuzer for her mer- ciful one; Louise Thiel for her encouragement, her support, and for forcing me to take a break ever once in a while; Alena Pfoser for her support and for making a library feel like home; Thomas Hübel, for presenting me with the opportunity to organise a lecture series on intellectual property at the Institute for Science and Art; Peter Drahos, for his support during my time at the Australian National University and his helpful comments, even more so as they all pertained to a part of my work that I eventually decided to drop; Daniela Rader for never complaining about the chores I skipped; Manuel Schleiffelder and Anneke Janssen for losing no word about my absent-mindedness at work during the last month; Sylvia Kroeger for her continuous support of my studies.
