  • Pt: Must Translate By: 2
    Solution to Challenge 3 Start by using the description of the MPSC cipher and Hint 1. We have: pt: m u s t Translate by: 2 3 4 5 CT: P Y X Z What this tells you: 1. If “m” was shifted two to the right to arrive at “p”, the “n” or “o” must be missing in between them. That means that “n” or “o” (but not both) appear in the keyword. This assumes that “m” isn’t in the keyword, but since it lies two letters from “p” it looks like it is in the normal alphabetical sequence. 2. One of “v”, “w”, or “x” must also be in the keyword. (The keyword is not “kryptos” !). Again, this assumes that “u” is not in the keyword. 3. Once again, since “s” is about 4 letters from “x” in the normal alphabet, we assume that “s” and “x” are not in the keyword but appearing in alphabetical order. This agrees nicely with #2: “v” or “w” is in the keyword AND “t” and “u” are NOT in the keyword (since we need these letters to keep “s” and “x” 4 letters apart. 4. If “v” or “w” is in the keyword, this makes “t” 5 letters from “z” if “y” and “z” are not in the keyword. Then end of the alphabet line looks like: … m (n o ) p… s t u (v w) x y z where parentheses were used to indicate groupings where one letter is missing (and appears earlier in the keyword). In order to make further progress, one might start guessing at possible two letter words that could reasonably precede “must”: “we” and “it” come to mind.

  • Euripides” Johanna Hanink
    The Life of the Author in the Letters of “Euripides” Johanna Hanink N 1694, Joshua Barnes, the eccentric British scholar (and poet) of Greek who the next year would become Regius Professor at the University of Cambridge, published his I 1 long-awaited Euripidis quae extant omnia. This was an enormous edition of Euripides’ works which contained every scrap of Euripidean material—dramatic, fragmentary, and biographical —that Barnes had managed to unearth.2 In the course of pre- paring the volume, Barnes had got wind that Richard Bentley believed that the epistles attributed by many ancient manu- scripts to Euripides were spurious; he therefore wrote to Bentley asking him to elucidate the grounds of his doubt. On 22 February 1693, Bentley returned a letter to Barnes in which he firmly declared that, with regard to the ancient epistles, “tis not Euripides himself that here discourseth, but a puny sophist that acts him.” Bentley did, however, recognize that convincing others of this would be a difficult task: “as for arguments to prove [the letters] spurious, perhaps there are none that will convince any person that doth not discover it by himself.”3 1 On the printing of the book and its early distribution see D. McKitterick, A History of Cambridge University Press I Printing and the Book Trade in Cambridge, 1534–1698 (Cambridge 1992) 380–392; on Joshua Barnes see K. L. Haugen, ODNB 3 (2004) 998–1001. 2 C. Collard, Tragedy, Euripides and Euripideans (Bristol 2007) 199–204, re- hearses a number of criticisms of Barnes’ methods, especially concerning his presentation of Euripidean fragments (for which he often gave no source, and which occasionally consisted of lines from the extant plays).

  • May Plato's Academy Be Considered As the First Academic Institution?
    Center for Open Access in Science ▪ https://www.centerprode.com/ojsh.html Open Journal for Studies in History, 2019, 2(2), 35-42. ISSN (Online) 2620-066X ▪ https://doi.org/10.32591/coas.ojsh.0202.02035s _________________________________________________________________________ May Plato’s Academy be Considered as the First Academic Institution? Zhulduz Amangelidyevna Seitkasimova M. Auezov South Kazakhstan State University, KAZAKHSTAN Faculty of Pedagogy and Culture, Shymkent Received 8 November 2019 ▪ Revised 17 December 2019 ▪ Accepted 23 December 2019 Abstract Plato’s Academy is undoubtedly the first higher education institution in history, and in ancient Athens itself represents the most important educational institution. It constituted in the context of the universal development that took place in ancient Athens, in the 5th and 4th century BC, and it continued to work until the Byzantine Emperor Justinian forbade the work of all schools of philosophy (529 AD). This development, which is part of the so-called Golden Age of ancient Athens, represents the period of Greek history in which the foundations of Western civilization originated, as we know it today. Plato appears as one of the greatest philosophers of ancient Greece, along with Socrates and Aristotle, to the first of whom appears as a student and to the second as a teacher. Philosophy in the true sense of the word was created in Plato’s era in ancient Athens (Russell, 1975), and Plato’s Academy, in which he, along with his students, talked about various philosophical topics through the Garden of Akademos, was the impetus for this development. There are also opinions that the development of philosophy after Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle is only of reproductive character when it comes to the basics of philosophy.

  • Handout 6: Platonic Forms Or Ideas
    ΠΛΑΤΩΝ | ΠΟΛΙΤΕΙΑ Handout 6 Platonic Forms or Ideas “For every real being, there are three things that are necessary if knowledge of it is to be acquired: first, the name; second, the definition; third, the image; knowledge comes fourth, and in the fifth place we must put the object itself, the knowable and truly real being. To understand what this means, take a particular example, and think of all other objects as analogous to it. There is something called a circle, and its name is this very word we have just used. Second, there is its definition, composed of verbs and nouns. ‘The figure whose limit is everywhere equally distant from its centre’ is the definition of whatever is ‘round’, ‘circular’ or ‘a circle’. Third is what we draw or rub out, what is turned or destroyed; but the circle itself to which they all refer remains unaffected, because it is different from them. In the fourth place we have knowledge, reason, and right opinion [true belief] (which are in our minds, not in words or bodily shapes, and therefore must be taken together as something distinct both from the circle itself and from the three things previously mentioned); of these, reason is nearest the fifth in kinship and likeness, while the others are further away. What is true of round is also true of straight; of colour, of the good, the beautiful, the just; of body in general, whether artificial or natural; of fire, water, and all the elements; of all living beings and qualities of souls; of all actions and affections [passions].

  • From Alphabetical Mysticism to Theosophical Kabbalah: a Rare Witness to an Intermediate Stage of Moses De León’S Thought
    Avishai BAR ASHER Hebrew University of Jerusalem FROM ALPHABETICAL MYSTICISM TO THEOSOPHICAL KABBALAH: A RARE WITNESS TO AN INTERMEDIATE STAGE OF MOSES DE LEÓN’S THOUGHT ABSTRACT This article investigates Moses de León’s early kabbalistic thought through a cluster of his unsigned works in manuscript, some of which have only recently come to light, and others of which have not received any scholarly attention at all. The analysis of these works reveals an intermediate stage of his thought that bridges his earlier eso- teric writing with the later, and more familiar, theosophical compositions that bear his name. The folia of these unsigned works are replete with speculations concerning the letters of the Hebrew alphabet and the names of God, through which de León expressed a unique blend of theology and angelology that was shaped, mainly, by Aristotelian paradigms. Scholars previously posited that de León, and other kabbalists active in roughly the same time and place, abruptly and mysteriously abandoned this worldview for a new one predicated on the theosophical foundation of a multiplicity of attributes or sephirot within the emanated Godhead. Through careful study of these works in manuscript, particularly a neglected work in MS Munich, Bayerische Staatsbibl., hebr. 47, the author recovers a transitional period in de León’s thought, when he had not quite given up one conceptual paradigm for the other. A new historiographical account is then proposed, according to which Castilian kabbalists living in the genera- tion of the Zohar absorbed the new theosophy slowly and tried to incorporate it into existing paradigms, resulting in unique hybrids, even as they also consolidated new modes of speculation.

  • Hymns of Synesius of Cyrene in Their Christian and Platonist Context
    Hymns of Synesius of Cyrene in Their Christian and Platonist Context By Dachi Pachulia Submitted to Central European University Department of Philosophy In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy Supervisor: István Bodnár Budapest, Hungary 2019 CEU eTD Collection i Abstract The thesis intends to promote the importance of Synesius of Cyrene as a thinker and a philosopher in general. First of all, this is achieved by stressing his influence on Proclus on the one hand and Pseudo-Dionysius on the other. Therefore, the thesis suggests, that in the Athenian philosophical school Christian Neoplatonist philosophers, such as Synesius were indeed read and discussed. The suggestion continues that it was under Proclus that the author of Dionysian corpus got acquainted with Synesius’ writings. But while Proclus was probably ignoring the Christian tenet of Synesius’ philosophy, Ps.-Dionysius held this very nature of Synesius’ thought the most important to “Christianize Proclus”, in other words to construct his own Christian metaphysical system to match it with the pagan counterpart. Thus, in the first chapter of the thesis, I stress the influence of Synesius’ hymns on Proclus’ hymns and Ps.-Dionysius’ letters. The second and third chapter of the thesis intends to further emphasize the uniqueness of Synesius’ thought. It starts with the rethinking of Theiler’s and Hadot’s thesis on Christian Platonist philosophers, who were denying the originality of their thought by making them dependent on Porphyry, the student of Plotinus. In the third chapter, I try to reconstruct the metaphysics of Synesius’ hymns concentrating on the anthropology of the hymns that I argue to be Christocentric in its nature.

  • Some Antecedents of Leibniz's Principles
    Some Antecedents of Leibniz’s Principles by Martinho Antônio Bittencourt de Castro A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History and Philosophy University of New South Wales Sydney, Australia April 2008 2 Declaration I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and to the best of my knowledge it contains no materials previously published or written by another person, or substantial proportions of material which have been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma at UNSW or any other educational institution, except where due acknowledgement is made in the thesis. Any contribution made to the research by others, with whom I have worked at UNSW or elsewhere, is explicitly acknowledged in the thesis. I also declare that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work, except to the extent that assistance from others in the project's design and conception or in style, presentation and linguistic expression is acknowledged. Date: 12 June 2008 3 Abstract Leibniz considered that scepticism and confusion engendered by the disputes of different sects or schools of metaphysics were obstacles to the progress of knowledge in philosophy. His solution was to adopt an eclectic method with the aim of uncovering the truth hidden beneath the dispute of schools. Leibniz’s project was, having in mind the eclectic method, to synthesise a union between old pre-modern philosophy, based on formal and final causes, and new modern philosophy which gave preference to efficient causes. The result of his efforts is summarised in the Monadology.

Degree awarded December 2011 ii © 2011 Jason M. Jordan iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Jason M. Jordan Doctor of Philosophy Department of Philosophy December 2011 Title: Causal Skepticism and the Destruction of Antiquity This dissertation examines the development of skeptical views concerning causation from the medieval to the early modern period. While causal skepticism is often overlooked by intellectual historians, I argue that, in spite of its typical motivation as a religious response to shibboleths of ancient philosophy that stood askance from the dogmas of Abrahamic theology, causal skepticism was the greatest intellectual development of post-antiquity and ultimately culminated into modern Science. The first chapter examines Hume's famous analysis of causation and serves as a foil for the prior history of causal skepticism addressed in the subsequent chapters. The second chapter addresses the dispute over causation in medieval Islamic philosophy.
