21. Heraclitus Lecture Notes
    Notes by Cynthia Freeland, covering heraclitus style, natural philosophy and doctrine of flux.  
    http://www.uh.edu/~cfreelan/courses/heraclnotes.html
    
    Extractions: Heraclitus is notorious for his "obscure" and distinctive style. Many readers seem to love it or hate it. Heraclitus' stylistic devices include metaphor, simile, aphorism, pun, word play, allusion, riddles, rhythm, and sound. Examples of puns and word plays: Fr. 65, p. 30 plays upon the word bios (life), accent on the first syllable, and bios (bow), accent on the second syllable. Fr. 48, p. 31 plays upon the phrases "xun noi" (with nous or intelligence) and "xunoi" (in common). Fr. 23, -. 27 plays upon the term "haptetai" which can mean "touch" or "kindle" as in "kindling a light". Some readers, like Jonathan Barnes, seem to suggest that Heraclitus' seemingly oracular sayings simply paper over his out-and-out contradictions. In short, Heraclitus is "fundamentally inconsistent". For an interesting discussion of whether Barnes' charge can be answered, see Timm Triplett, "Barnes on Heraclitus and the Unity of Opposites," Ancient Philosophy 6 , pp. 15-23.

24. Heidegger's Reading Of Heraclitus
    A paper on Martin Heidegger s interpretation of PreSocratic thinker heraclitus.  
    http://www.geocities.com/athens/delphi/9994/heidher.html
    
    Extractions: Introduction In a career stretching over half a century Martin Heidegger attempts to question the limitations of the Western philosophical tradition and open a space for thinking outside of it. At the beginning of this tradition he places the pre-Socratics, in particular Anaximander, Parmenides, and Heraclitus. In the fragments of these thinkers he finds both the foreshadowing of the tradition's development and a source for thought which would avoid the confines of this later developmentassociated with nihilism and the technological domination of the earthby experiencing anew its initial unfolding. In this paper I explore Heidegger's relationship to Heraclitus in several texts by examining Heidegger's interpretation of particular fragments and placing them in the context of his philosophy. In the course of this exploration I show the influence which Heidegger attributes to the early Greek thinkers in determining our experience of Being right up into the modern, technological age. This modern determination of Being shows itself in the dominance of a logical approach to beings which seeks to make correct predictions about them. Heidegger traces the emphasis on logic and correctness to the Greek terms lovgo§ and ajlhvqeia, but argues that both termsthe first taken as gathering, the second as unconcealmentoriginally comprehended the relatedness of beings to one another and to what remains concealed. In the fragments of Heraclitus Heidegger not only finds support for these interpretations, but also stimulation for thinking outside the prejudices of the West, and my analysis covers these issues as well.

    Extractions: IF we know the aims of humans who are strangers to us, it is sufficient for us to approve of or condemn them as wholes. Those who stand nearer to us we judge according to the means by which they further their aims; we often disapprove of their aims, but love them for the sake of their means and the style of their volition. Now philosophical systems are absolutely true only to their founders, to all later philosophers they are usually one big mistake, and to feebler minds a sum of mistakes and truths; at any rate if regarded as highest aim they are an error, and in so far reprehensible. Therefore many disapprove of all philosophers, because their aims are not ours; they are those whom I called " strangers to us." Whoever on the contrary finds any pleasure at all in great humans finds pleasure also in such systems, be they ever so erroneous, for they all have in them one point which is irrefutable, a personal touch, and color; one can use them in order to form a picture of the philosopher, just as from a plant growing in a certain place one can form conclusions as to the soil. That mode of life, of viewing human affairs at any rate, has existed once and is therefore possible; the "system" is the growth in this soil or at least a part of this system....I narrate the history of those philosophers simplified: I shall bring into relief only

Hij vatte de ziel op als een mengsel van vuur en water. Het vuur staat voor het edele, het water voor het onedele. Als een man dronken is, is zijn ziel nat. Een uitspraak van Heraclitus is: "Het is niet goed voor de mens om alles te verwerven wat hij verlangt." Hij verfoeide de hartstochten, omdat die de mensen van hun ambities afhouden. Terwijl Thales water beschouwde als het oer-element

    Extractions: Heraclitus was a contemporary of Pythagoras, Lao-tzu, Confucius, and Siddhartha, the Buddha; some say that the term "philosophy", love of wisdom, was first introduced by Pythagoras, who lived from approximately 580 BCE to 500 BCE. Pythagoras and his followers, the Pythagoreans, argued numbers to constitute the true nature of things and all relations to be numerical. Pythagoras is often regarded as the founder of modern mathematics and geometry. The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypothenuse (opposite side) is always equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. The Pythagoreans ... argued that earth was a sphere revolving around the sun in a predictable way. Source: optionality.net

37. Heraclitus Of Ephesus
    heraclitus of Ephesus (fl. 500480 BC), also known as the Riddler and the Obscure, was the eldest son of a leading aristocratic family.  
    http://faculty.evansville.edu/tb2/trip/heraclitus.htm
    
    Extractions: Online Research Heraclitus of Ephesus version for printing Anthony F. Beavers Aristotle tells us about three of Heraclitus' ideas; the first is that, like earlier Milesian philosophers, he located the first principle of all things in a natural element, in this case, fire. (See Metaphysics Plato makes positive use of the first of these modes of identifying opposites in the "Cycle of Opposites" argument for the immortality of the soul. (See Phaedo 70c-72e.) Heraclitus writes, "And it is the same thing in us that is quick [that is, alive] and dead, awake and asleep, young and old; the former are shifted and become the latter, and the latter in turn are shifted and become the former" (Fragment 78). Plato identifies this "same thing" as the soul, preserving Heraclitus' analogy between the two opponent pairs being awake and being asleep, and being alive and being dead. (See Phaedo 71c-d.)

And now that thou art lying, my dear old Carian guest, A handful of grey ashes, long, long ago at rest, Still are thy pleasant voices, thy nightingales, awake; For Death, he taketh all away, but them he cannot take.

Notes: Heraclitus: Greek philosopher (ca. 540-ca. 400 BC), pre-Socratic founder of an Ionian school, whose principal tenet was change in all things. Cory translates an epigram of Callimachus, which in A. W. Mair's translation of the Greek is as follows: "One told me, Heracleitus, of thy death and brought me to tears, and I remembered how often we two in talking put the sun to rest. Thou, methinks, Halicarnasian friend, art ashes long and long ago; but thy nightingales live still, whereon Hades, snatcher of all things, shall not lay his hand" Carian: of Caria, part of southwest Asia Minor.

    A short article from 1998 by James Dye, contrasting these two thinkers.  
    http://www.soci.niu.edu/~phildept/Dye/Heraclitus&Parmenides.html
    
    Extractions: Heraclitus claims that sense perception alone cannot reveal the truth about things, for they are not really what they seem to be. Thought is required to reveal that what seems stable is really constantly changingthat what seems to be a thing is but a slice of a process. Heraclitus invents the distinction between appearance and reality . Perceptual objects are not the real entities constituting the natural world; they are only the ways those entities appear to us. Our perceptions are the effects of causes which we do not directly perceive and which we can know only by inference. (Does the image on the movie screen or the television monitor exist ? Is it a real thing in the world? Do we exist or are we more like a movie or a television programprocesses seeming to be entities only because of the abstractive character of our experience of ourselves?) Parmenides takes note of Heraclitus' observations about sense perception but disagrees that the mind could ever reconstruct the truth out of the sensory data. There is no one way our sensations can be manipulated to yield a single, coherent story about what really exits. Therefore any single way in which they are assembled will at best be an
