  • Pt: Must Translate By: 2

    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

    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?

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

    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].
  • The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence

    The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence

    The Practice of the Presence of God Brother Lawrence 2002 Edition Edited by Lightheart at PracticeGodsPresence.com Wheeler eBook Library Editor’s Preface Brother Lawrence was born Nicholas Herman around 1610 in Herimenil, Lorraine, a Duchy of France. His birth records were destroyed in a fire at his parish church during the Thirty Years War, a war in which he fought as a young soldier. It was also the war in which he sustained a near fatal injury to his sciatic nerve. The injury left him quite crippled and in chronic pain for the rest of his life. The details of his early life are few and sketchy. However, we know he was educated both at home and by his parish priest whose first name was Lawrence and who was greatly admired by the young Nicolas. He was well read and, from an early age, drawn to a spiritual life of faith and love for God. We also know that in the years between the abrupt end of his duties as a soldier and his entry into monastic life, he spent a period of time in the wilderness living like one of the early desert fathers. Also, prior to entering the monastery, and perhaps as preparation, he spent time as a civil servant. In his characteristic, self deprecating way, he mentions that he was a “footman who was clumsy and broke everything.” At mid-life he entered a newly established monastery in Paris where he became the cook for the community which grew to over one hundred members. After fifteen years, his duties were shifted to the sandal repair shop but, even then, he often returned to the busy kitchen to help out.
