163. The Universe Of Aristotle And Ptolemy However, the Greek philosopher aristotle (many of aristotles works are available at The Prime Mover of aristotle s universe became the God of Christian http://csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr161/lect/retrograde/aristotle.html

The Universe of Aristotle and Ptolemy The celestial sphere that we introduced previously is a convenient fiction to locate objects in the sky. However, the Greek philosopher Aristotle (many of Aristotles works are available at the Internet Classics Archive ) proposed that the heavens were literally composed of 55 concentric, crystalline spheres to which the celestial objects were attached and which rotated at different velocities (but the angular velocity was constant for a given sphere), with the Earth at the center. The following figure illustrates the ordering of the spheres to which the Sun, Moon, and visible planets were attached. (The diagram is not to scale, and the planets are aligned for convenience in illustration; generally they were distributed around the spheres.) There were additional "buffering" spheres that lay between the spheres illustrated. The sphere of the stars lay beyond the ones shown here for the planets; finally, in the Aristotelian conception there was an outermost sphere that was the domain of the "Prime Mover". The Prime Mover caused the outermost sphere to rotate at constant angular velocity, and this motion was imparted from sphere to sphere, thus causing the whole thing to rotate. By adjusting the velocities of these concentric spheres, many features of planetary motion could be explained. However, the troubling observations of varying planetary brightness and retrograde motion could not be accommodated: the spheres moved with constant angular velocity, and the objects attached to them were always the same distance from the earth because they moved on spheres with the earth at the center.

If, then, the exercise of the faculty of sight is actual seeing, that of the auditory faculty, hearing, and, in general that of the faculty of sense-perception, perceiving; and if there are some perceptions common others, as colour, sound, taste, peculiar [each to its own sense]; and further, if all creatures, when the eyes are closed in sleep, are unable

But now, since it is this knowledge that we are seeking, we must consider the following point: of what kind of principles and of what kind of causes is wisdom the knowledge? ( Aristotle , Metaphysics, 340BC) Metaphysics involves intuitive knowledge of unprovable starting-points (concepts and truth) and demonstrative knowledge of what follows from them. ( Aristotle The first philosophy (Metaphysics) is universal and is exclusively concerned with primary substance. ... And here we will have the science to study that which is just as that which is, both in its essence and in the properties which, just as a thing that is, it has. (

Forum: January 2002 Ever since Galileo attacked Aristotle's view of the world, the Greek philosopher's ideas have been regarded as a barrier to scientific progress. Michael Rowan-Robinson disagrees. Deep thoughts In the spring of 1998 I found myself standing on the stones of the Lyceum of Aristotle in Athens. It was strange to think that for two millennia no-one had stood on this spot and known the significance of the place. The location of the Lyceum - the world's first university - had been roughly known to archaeologists, but the serendipitous discovery of it by Ephi Ligouri in 1997 was without doubt one of the most momentous classical discoveries of modern times. By persistence and immense good fortune, I found myself being shown round the site - which was at the time still closed to the public - by Ligouri herself. The site is large - some 50 metres across - and consists of the exposed foundations of a large building sitting on bedrock. When Ligouri realized that she had stumbled on a "gymnasio" - a building given over to physical exercise and training - she knew at once that it must have been the Lyceum. It was not exactly in the location traditionally assigned to the Lyceum, but the site satisfied all known requirements: to the east of the city walls and on the banks of the river Iliso.

I. Beare Part 1 As to the divination which takes place in sleep, and is said to be based on dreams, we cannot lightly either dismiss it with contempt or give it implicit confidence. The fact that all persons, or many, suppose dreams to possess a special significance, tends to inspire us with belief in it [such divination], as founded on the testimony of experience; and indeed that divination in dreams should, as regards some subjects, be genuine, is not incredible, for it has a show of reason; from which one might form a like opinion also respecting all other dreams. Yet the fact of our seeing no probable cause to account for such divination tends to inspire us with distrust. For, in addition to its further unreasonableness, it is absurd

171. Greek Philosophy: Aristotle, The Four Causes aristotle The Four Causes We must inquire into the nature of causes (aitia ) aristotle, The Doctrine of the Mean , from The Nicomachean Ethics http://www.wsu.edu/~dee/GREECE/4CAUSES.HTM

aitia In another sense, the form and pattern are a cause, that is to say the statement of the essence genera to which it belongs; such, for instance, in the case of the octave, are the ratio of two to one, and number in general; and the constituent terms in a definition are included in the wider class of a definition. Translated from the Greek by Richard Hooker (©1993) ENDNOTES i.e., the genus (plural: genera) of bronze and silver is "metal," so metal is also a material cause of a statue. This is a bizarre explanation of the formal cause. An octave is a musical chord consisting of two notes in which one note is twice as high in pitch as the other (so the form of and octave is 2:1); since an octave is a numerical relation, the genus "numerical relation" is also the form of an octave. Think back to the statue: suppose it is a statue of a man. The formal cause would be the form of the particular man the atatue represents; the genus, "shaped like a man," would also be a formal cause. This needs little explanation. This third cause is called the "efficient cause" (efficient means "maker" or "doer"); if you think back to our statue, the sculptor would be the efficient cause of the statue.

Aristotle's Poetics Complexity and Pleasure: Aristotle's 'Complex Plot' and the pleasure element in tragedy by Souvik Mukherjee Search Now: Books by and about Aristotle Books about Classical literature English Literature Home Page Course Summary ... Find books First, the instinct of imitation is implanted in man from childhood, one difference between him and other animals being that he is the most imitative of living creatures, and through imitation learns his earliest lessons; and no less universal is the pleasure felt in things imitated. We have evidence of this in the facts of experience. Objects which in themselves we view with pain, we delight to contemplate when reproduced with minute fidelity [Poetics Chapter lV] In his Poetics [1] Aristotle (384-322 BC) classifies plot into two types: simple [haplos], and complex [peplegmenos]. The simple plot is defined as a unified construct of necessary and probable actions accompanied by a change of fortune. The complex plot, says Aristotle, is accompanied by two other features, namely; peripeteia or reversal, and anagnorisis, or recognition. It is this which Aristotle feels is the best kind of tragic plot, in that it provides the best possibility of delivering tragic pleasure. Before we look at the distinctive features of the complex plot, it would perhaps be instructive to examine those features which it shares with the simple plot. The unity of structure recommended by Aristotle includes the tripartite division of the plot into the beginning, the middle and the end, as well as the unities of time and action. He stresses unified action, where all action in the plot carries a definite link to other actions, and subsequent actions are the necessary and probable outcomes of the former.

176. Theophrastus Article drawn from the 2000 Britannica, noting the relation of his known works to aristotle's system. http://www.kat.gr/kat/History/Greek/Ph/Theophrastus.htm

Theophrastus b. c. 372 BC,, Eresus, Lesbos d. c. 287 Greek Peripatetic philosopher and pupil of Aristotle . He studied at Athens under Aristotle, and when Aristotle was forced to retire in 323 he became the head of the Lyceum, the academy in Athens founded by Aristotle. Under Theophrastus the enrollment of pupils and auditors rose to its highest point. Among Theophrastus' other works is the Physikon doxai ("Opinions of Natural Philosophers"). As reconstructed by Herman Diels in Doxographi Graeci (1879), it provides a foundation for the history of ancient philosophy.
