Source: Phronesis: A journal for Ancient Philosophy , Volume 43, Number 3, 1998, pp. 211-244(34) Publisher: Brill Academic Publishers View Table of Contents full text options Abstract: vice versa - he learned much from them and actively used this knowledge in developing his philosophy. There is no reliable evidence that Eudoxus, Menaechmus, Dinostratus, Theudius, and others, whom many scholars unite into the group of so-called "Academic mathematicians," ever were his pupils or close associates. Our analysis of the relevant passages (Eratosthenes' Platonicus , Sosigenes ap Catalogue of geometers History of the Academy , etc.) shows that the very tendency of portraying Plato as the architect of science goes back to the early Academy and is born out of interpretations of his dialogues.

It would not be easy to find a more lucid explanation of the terms element and elementary , and of the distinction between them, than is found in Proclus , who is doubtless, here as so often, quoting from Geminus. There are, says Proclus, in the whole of geometry certain leading theorems, bearing to those which follow the relation of a principle, all-pervading, and furnishing proofs of many properties. Such theorems are called by the name of elements ; and their function may be compared to that of the letters of the alphabet in relation to language, letters being indeed called by the same name in Greek (stoicheia).

A proposition equivalent to the law of cosines is included in Euclid's Elements. T F 3. Using ruler and compass it is possible to construct a regular polygon with 72 sides. T F 4. Plato encouraged the study of mathematics because he felt it was good training for future philosophers. T F 5. The Babylonians had a fully developed place value system very much like the one we use today. T F 6. Euclid made a distinction between common notions and postulates, but we don't today. T F 7. The Greeks did not know how to solve quadratic equations. T F 8. Building pyramids probably didn't require a great deal of mathematics. T F 9.

Discovered that the moon reflected light and formulated the correct theory for the eclipses. Erroneously believed that the Earth was flat.

Formulated a theory of origin and evolution of life, according to which life originated in the sea from the moist element which evaporated from the sun ( On Nature ). Was the first to model the Earth according to scientific principles. According to him, the Earth was a cylinder with a north-south curvature, suspended freely in space, and the stars where attached to a sphere that rotated around Earth.
