  • Plato As "Architectof Science"
    Plato as "Architectof Science" LEONID ZHMUD ABSTRACT The figureof the cordialhost of the Academy,who invitedthe mostgifted math- ematiciansand cultivatedpure research, whose keen intellectwas able if not to solve the particularproblem then at least to show the methodfor its solution: this figureis quite familiarto studentsof Greekscience. But was the Academy as such a centerof scientificresearch, and did Plato really set for mathemati- cians and astronomersthe problemsthey shouldstudy and methodsthey should use? Oursources tell aboutPlato's friendship or at leastacquaintance with many brilliantmathematicians of his day (Theodorus,Archytas, Theaetetus), but they were neverhis pupils,rather vice versa- he learnedmuch from them and actively used this knowledgein developinghis philosophy.There is no reliableevidence that Eudoxus,Menaechmus, Dinostratus, Theudius, and others, whom many scholarsunite into the groupof so-called"Academic mathematicians," ever were his pupilsor close associates.Our analysis of therelevant passages (Eratosthenes' Platonicus, Sosigenes ap. Simplicius, Proclus' Catalogue of geometers, and Philodemus'History of the Academy,etc.) shows thatthe very tendencyof por- trayingPlato as the architectof sciencegoes back to the earlyAcademy and is bornout of interpretationsof his dialogues. I Plato's relationship to the exact sciences used to be one of the traditional problems in the history of ancient Greek science and philosophy.' From the nineteenth century on it was examined in various aspects, the most significant of which were the historical, philosophical and methodological. In the last century and at the beginning of this century attention was paid peredominantly, although not exclusively, to the first of these aspects, especially to the questions how great Plato's contribution to specific math- ematical research really was, and how reliable our sources are in ascrib- ing to him particular scientific discoveries.

On the other, it tries to unveil the philosophical motives in the works of authors who tend to be disregarded as historians, biographers, hagiographers or even as mere fans of the most prominent figures of their own schools. In our review, we will attempt to give a brief account of the ten articles that make up this volume, which, in turn, will hopefully provide an overview of the different connections between the biographies and biographers and their philosophical motives. Thomas Bénatouïl’s Pythagore chez Dicéarque: anectodes biographiques et critique de la philosophie contemplative (p. 11-36) proposes an inversion of the traditional interpretation regarding the testimony of Dicaearchus of Messana about the life of Pythagoras. Since antiquity, Dicaearchus’ reports tend to be seen as positive, because they present a Pythagoras devoid of mysticism and apparently more interested in practical matters.

  • A Reading of Porphyry's on Abstinence From
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Justice Purity Piety: A Reading of Porphyry’s On Abstinence from Ensouled Beings A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Classics by Alexander Press 2020 © Copyright by Alexander Press 2020 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Justice Purity Piety: A Reading of Porphyry’s On Abstinence from Ensouled Beings by Alexander Press Doctor of Philosophy in Classics University of California, Los Angeles, 2020 Professor David Blank, Chair Abstract: Presenting a range of arguments against meat-eating, many strikingly familiar, Porphyry’s On Abstinence from Ensouled Beings (Greek Περὶ ἀποχῆς ἐµψύχων, Latin De abstinentia ab esu animalium) offers a sweeping view of the ancient debate concerning animals and their treatment. At the same time, because of its advocacy of an asceticism informed by its author’s Neoplatonism, Abstinence is often taken to be concerned primarily with the health of the human soul. By approaching Abstinence as a work of moral suasion and a work of literature, whose intra- and intertextual resonances yield something more than a collection of propositions or an invitation to Quellenforschung, I aim to push beyond interpretations that bracket the arguments regarding animals as merely dialectical; cast the text’s other-directed principle of justice as wholly ii subordinated to a self-directed principle of purity; or accept as decisive Porphyry’s exclusion of craftsmen, athletes, soldiers, sailors, and orators from his call to vegetarianism.

  • Download Date | 6/9/19 10:06 AM Pseudo-Pythagorean Literature 73
    Philologus 2019; 163(1): 72–94 Leonid Zhmud* What is Pythagorean in the Pseudo-Pythagorean Literature? https://doi.org/10.1515/phil-2018-0003 Abstract: This paper discusses continuity between ancient Pythagoreanism and the pseudo-Pythagorean writings, which began to appear after the end of the Pythagorean school ca. 350 BC. Relying on a combination of temporal, formal and substantial criteria, I divide Pseudopythagorica into three categories: 1) early Hellenistic writings (late fourth – late second centuries BC) ascribed to Pytha- goras and his family members; 2) philosophical treatises written mostly, yet not exclusively, in pseudo-Doric from the turn of the first century BC under the names of real or fictional Pythagoreans; 3) writings attributed to Pythagoras and his relatives that continued to appear in the late Hellenistic and Imperial periods. I will argue that all three categories of pseudepigrapha contain astonishingly little that is authentically Pythagorean. Keywords: Pythagoreanism, pseudo-Pythagorean writings, Platonism, Aristote- lianism Forgery has been widespread in time and place and varied in its goals and methods, and it can easily be confused with superficially similar activities. A. Grafton Note: An earlier version of this article was presented at the colloquium “Pseudopythagorica: stratégies du faire croire dans la philosophie antique” (Paris, 28 May 2015). I would like to thank Constantinos Macris (CNRS) for his kind invitation. The final version was written during my fellowship at the IAS of Durham University and presented at the B Club, Cambridge, in Mai 2016. I am grateful to Gábor Betegh for inviting me to give a talk and to the audience for the vivid discussion.

  • Aristotelian Elements in the Myth of Plutarch's De Facie
    CHAPTER EIGHT ARISTOTELIAN ELEMENTS IN THE MYTH OF PLUTARCH'S DE FACIE As the material dealt with in chapter 7 showed, recovery of the sources of Plutarch's myth in the De facie is a perilous undertaking. Like Plato, Plutarch is first and foremost a creative author of great literary talent who is quite capable of developing and using entirely new motifs in his writings to further his philosophical or literary aims. Where he does not expressly mention his sources, certainty about older authors which he may have used cannot be gained. At the same time it is to be assumed that Plutarch made repeated use of themes and stories found in the literature of his time, which he collected and studied assiduously. As far as Plato's work is concerned, this is borne out by almost every page of Plutarch's writings. Influence is likely in the case of other writers, but difficult to determine because their works have been lost. One thinks of such figures as Speusippus, Xenocrates, Heraclides Ponticus, and Stoics like Posidonius. Matters are even more complicated as far as Aristotle is concerned. Although passages in Plutarch's writings often recall texts from the Corpus Aristotelicum, it cannot be established conclusively that Plutarch drew on them. F. H. Sandbach, on the other hand, has argued strongly that Plutarch had no knowledge of the Corpus and was only acquainted with Aristotle's published work, now lost.1 Where Plutarch does not name his source, however, it is difficult to ascertain what he derived from these published works.

  • Women in Early Pythagoreanism
    Women in Early Pythagoreanism Caterina Pellò Faculty of Classics University of Cambridge Clare Hall February 2018 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Alla nonna Ninni, che mi ha insegnato a leggere e scrivere Abstract Women in Early Pythagoreanism Caterina Pellò The sixth-century-BCE Pythagorean communities included both male and female members. This thesis focuses on the Pythagorean women and aims to explore what reasons lie behind the prominence of women in Pythagoreanism and what roles women played in early Pythagorean societies and thought. In the first chapter, I analyse the social conditions of women in Southern Italy, where the first Pythagorean communities were founded. In the second chapter, I compare Pythagorean societies with ancient Greek political clubs and religious sects. Compared to mainland Greece, South Italian women enjoyed higher legal and socio-political status. Similarly, religious groups included female initiates, assigning them authoritative roles. Consequently, the fact that the Pythagoreans founded their communities in Croton and further afield, and that in some respects these communities resembled ancient sects helps to explain why they opened their doors to the female gender to begin with. The third chapter discusses Pythagoras’ teachings to and about women. Pythagorean doctrines did not exclusively affect the followers’ way of thinking and public activities, but also their private way of living. Thus, they also regulated key aspects of the female everyday life, such as marriage and motherhood. I argue that the Pythagorean women entered the communities as wives, mothers and daughters. Nonetheless, some of them were able to gain authority over their fellow Pythagoreans and engage in intellectual activities, thus overcoming the female traditional domestic roles.

  • GREEK MUSIC. the General Conviction That the True
    GREEK MUSIC. THE general conviction that the true nature of ancient Greek music is practically incomprehensible in modern times arises from many causes, of which the most potent are:— 1. That hitherto all explanations have been based on the extant formal treatises, which deal either with the decadent elaborations of solo cithara- playing, or the purely theoretical calculations of the self-styled Pythagorean school, which latter professedly despised the actual performance of music. 2. The attempts to elucidate the subject make no allowance for the fact that the extant specimens of noted music extend over a period of at least eight centuries, and no one explanation is likely to fit either the whole of these or the casual references to music to be found in general Greek literature. 3. Thanks mainly to Aristoxenus, the modern mind has become so permeated by the quarter-tone theory of the enharmonic genus, that even so simple a record as the celebrated Euripides fragment has been generally interpreted as involving this minute interval. The arguments against this theory, at least as regards vocal music, are weighty and almost conclusive ; but their full development requires more space than is available here. This article is an attempt to summarise the main conclusions arrived at from a careful consideration of authenticated history, the representations of musical instruments, the complete notation, and the casual references to music of various Greek writers, especially Plato, Aristotle, and Plutarch. It is manifestly impossible to give the authority for each statement, but a few of the more important references will be given.

    CHAPrERFIVE THE CELESTIAL ESCHATOLOGY AND ITS TRANSFORMATIONS Plato has removed the Isles of the Blessed to somewhere in the sky, according to the presuppositions of his ontology and cosmology: what is lower is coarser, the elements are ranged on a vertical scale from gross ( earth, water) to finer (air, aether, starry fire). However, after death, only the souls of the righteous have the privilege of abiding at the earth's surface, or even higher, in close vicinity to the eternal ideas. Moreover, neither the staying on the True Earth, nor the contemplation of the hyperuranian essences are in all cases supposed to be everlasting. For smaller merits, they last only for a definite period of time, after which the soul must choose again an incarnation on the earth. After judgement, the soul of the Unjust goes to the underground Hell, where the generally verticallity of Plato's system is again respected:the worse the soul, the deeper she goes into the bowels of the earth, and the worst of all, those of the tyrants and criminals, go down into the deepest region of the Tartarus. King Ardiaeus, for instance, had been sentenced to a punishment of that kind. We have already mentioned many times that Plato's legacy has had the tendency to transfer the underground Hell to the sky. As for the author of this transformation, opinions vary, but many scholars believe that Heraclides Ponticus would be the most likely candidate. Heraclides Ponticus, born at Heraclea on the Pontus between 388-373, frequented the Academy in 364 or before.

  • Research and Experiment in Early Greek Thought by Tyler Mayo A
    Research and Experiment in Early Greek Thought by Tyler Mayo A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Studies) in the University of Michigan 2019 Doctoral Committee: Professor Francesca Schironi, Chair Professor Sara Ahbel-Rappe Professor Richard Janko Associate Professor Ian Moyer Tyler Edward Mayo [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0002-2442-7127 To my mother and father ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First, ad consuetudinem maiorum, I would like to begin by acknowledging and expressing my gratitude to the members of my committee: Professors Richard Janko, Ian Moyer, and Sara Abhel-Rappe. Their suggestions and criticisms helped me to rethink some, and alter other, points within this dissertation to its improvement, and saved me from numerous errors within the text, many of which surely still lurk within these pages and are my responsibility alone. However, I owe a special debt to my chair, Francesca Schironi, whose support not only made this dissertation possible, but who acted as a mentor throughout my entire time at Michigan. Her honesty and counsel were always welcome, and her careful philology can be seen within these pages, although I fear only as an imperfect reflection. Outside Angell Hall, others made my studies in Ann Arbor possible. The Posch family— John, Dyanna, Isabel, and most recently, Jude—acted as a family away from home, not least for their generous hospitality in boarding me. I shall always remember and cherish their ξενία. My wife Liz is certainly owed a place of honor in the beginning of this dissertation. Her support was essential in its creation as in all other things.

    Encounters in Law and Philosophy ENCOUNTERS IN LAW AND PHILOSOPHY S T A S I SERIES EDITORS: Thanos Zartaloudis (University of Kent) and S C Anton Schütz (Birkbeck College, University of London). i v i l This series interrogates, historically and theoretically, the encounters W a r Thanos between philosophy and law. Each volume published takes a unique a s approach and challenges traditional approaches to law and philosophy. a P o l i t i c A new contribution to Agamben’s continuing a ZARTALOUDIS l P genealogy of power a r a d i In this inaugural volume of the Encounters in Law and Philosophy g m series, Giorgio Agamben focuses upon the on-going warfare European THE BIRTH state power has waged against its most malignant enemy: civil war itself. The survival of the State is seen to depend on its ability to preserve the OF NOMOS political community from factional enmity. Agamben first investigates the Athenian theme of ‘Stasis’ – the city’s struggle against internal G I revolt – before turning to a new reading of Hobbes’s Leviathan and its O approach to the peril of the commonwealth’s exposure to civil strife, R G division and revolution. I O At the heart of this book is the issue of state powers in their A G continuous decline – an issue that is key to the renewal of political, A M philosophical and legal thought. B E N Giorgio Agamben is one of the most vigorous thinkers of our time. He is best known for his recent Homo Sacer series of publications interrogating power and biopolitics.
