Plato
(ca. 428/427 - 348/347 B.C.E.)
Greek Philosopher
Influences Education
  • Studied philosophy in Athens under Socrates, 408-400 B.C.E.
Career
  • Ca. 387, established the Academy of Athens, taught philosophy there for 40 years
Ideas and Contributions Plato was born into a wealth Athenian family and planned to become a politician. As he grew older, he became repulsed by the brutal and unethical practices of Athenian dictators. In 399 B.C.E. he left Athens when his friend Socrates was sentenced to death. Twelve years later, he founded a school of philosophy and science called the Academy , the first university. Plato is famous for his written dialogues , conversations between two or more characters debating philosophical issues. His earliest dialogues utilize Socrates as the main character who questions others on their beliefs and ideas. ( World Book Plato's philosophy was based on his theory of a soul divided into three components, reason, will and appetite. He contended that one can identify the parts of the soul because they sometimes clash with each other. A person may crave or have an appetite for something, yet resist the craving with willpower. A correctly operating soul requires the highest part, reason, to control the lowest part, appetite, with assistance from the will.

In the fifth century BC the Pythagorean Empedocles of Acragas wrote two poems, On Nature and Purifications , about the middle of the fifth century BC. He saw the universe as shifting between Love and Strife and composed of the elements of fire, air, water, and earth. With Love comes concord and joy; Aristotle interpreted Love as the cause of good and Strife as the cause of bad. Aristotle also said that he had been a champion of freedom and was averse to all rules. Others said that Empedocles declined the kingship offered to him, because he preferred to live frugally. When a tyrant insisted that all the guests drink wine or have it poured over their heads, Empedocles the next day accused the host and master of revels; this led to their condemnation and execution. Thus began his political career; it was argued that he must have been both wealthy and democratic, because he broke up the assembly of a thousand three years after it was set up. Late in his life the descendants of his enemies opposed his return to Agrigentum; so he went to the Peloponnesus, where he died. Leucippus founded the atom theory of natural philosophy refined by Democritus, who also taught that the cheerful person eager for justice and right actions is strong and free of care, while those who do not care about justice and right find everything joyless and in memory are afraid and reproach themselves. Happiness, said Democritus, is not found in gold or cattle but in the soul. For Democritus the goal of action is tranquillity, which is not the same as pleasure but a state of well-being in which the soul is calm, strong and undisturbed by fear, superstition, and other feelings.

A. QUESTIONS AND SUGGESTED ANSWERS
1.WHERE WAS THE LOST ISLAND OF ATLANTIS LOCATED? ACCORDING TO PLATO, THE ISLAND OF ATLANTIS, WHICH WAS LARGER THAN LYBIA AND ASIA COMBINED, WAS LOCATED BEYOND THE PILLARS OF HERACLES.
    A) AN ISLAND OF THIS SIZE CERTAINLY WOULD NOT FIT ANY PLACE IN THE MEDITERRANEAN. B) AN ISLAND OF THIS SIZE WOULD FIT IN THE ATLANTIC OCEAN WEST AND BEYOND THE PILLARS OF HERACLES. HOWEVER, THE OCEAN FLOOR THERE IS TOO DEEP AND ACCORDING TO BATHYMETRIC MEASUREMENTS, THERE ARE NO TRACES THAT SUCH AN ISLAND EVER EXISTED. (EXCEPT IF THE ATLANTEANS HAD DISCOVERED THE SECRETS OF GRAVITY AS SOME DREAMERS LIKE TO IMAGINE, AND DURING SOME FAILED EXPERIMENT THE WHOLE ISLAND WAS FLUNG OUT INTO SPACE). C) ANOTHER POSSIBLE LOCATION, AS SOME SCHOLARS SUGGEST, IS THE CELTIC SHELF. THE AREA IS LARGE ENOUGH, BUT IT IS VERY HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THE WEATHER CONDITIONS WOULD BE AGREEABLE FOR SUCH A GREAT CIVILIZATION TO FLOURISH. ONE MUST CONSIDER THE PREVAILING WEATHER CONDITIONS AND THE PROXIMITY OF THE ICE SHEET. D) THE WATERS IN THE WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN ARE DEEP, AS ARE THE EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN WATERS WEST TO THE ISLAND OF CRETE.

155. Plato And Mathematics
plato The Meno as the gateway from Mathematics to Mysticism.
http://community.middlebury.edu/~harris/Philosophy/Plato.html
PLATO
Mathematician or Mystic ?
Plato believed at first that Mathematics would be the key to Thought, but in the Meno he abandons hope in the context of a few sentences, which we have constantly misread. This paper examine that crux.
No reader of Plato can fail to recognize the important role which mathematics plays in his writing, as would indeed be expected for an author about whom the ancient tradition maintains that he had hung over the entry to his school the words "Let No One Un-versed in Geometry Enter". Presumably it was the level of ability to work with abstract concepts that Plato was interested in primarily, but if the student really had never studied Greek geometric materials there would be many passages in the lectures which would be scarcely intelligible to him. Modern readers, versed in a much higher level of mathematical abstraction which our society can offer, have sometimes felt that Plato's famous "mathematical examples'" were illustrations rather than central to his arguments, and some of Plato's mathematical excursuses have remained obscure to the present time. When Euclid put together his masterful compendium in the 3 rd C. B.C. he was obviously drawing on a legacy of accumulated mathematical research which went back well into the 5th C. B.C. and possibly even further. Activity can be pushed back well into the 5th C. B.C. in view of the quite reasonable ancient assignment of the Pythagorean Theorem of Euclid I 47 to the master himself; this would naturally involve understanding of squares and irrational numbers. And i4 should be noted that well back into that century Iktinos, the architect of the Parthenon was not only considering but actually using in his work the square root of the diagonal of a 1:2 rectangle in the form which later became famous as the Golden Mean, more specifically in the ratio l.6l8 : l

translated by Benjamin Jowett
PERSONS OF THE DIALOGUE:
MENO; SOCRATES; A SLAVE OF MENO; ANYTUS.
Meno. Can you tell me, Socrates, whether virtue is acquired by teaching or by practice; or if neither by teaching nor practice, then whether it comes to man by nature, or in what other way? Socrates. Men. No, Indeed. But are you in earnest, Socrates, in saying that you do not know what virtue is? And am I to carry back this report of you to Thessaly? Soc. Not only that, my dear boy, but you may say further that I have never known of any one else who did, in my judgment. Men. Then you have never met Gorgias when he was at Athens? Soc. Yes, I have. Men. And did you not think that he knew? Soc. I have not a good memory, Meno, and therefore I cannot now tell what I thought of him at the time. And I dare say that he did know, and that you know what he said: please, therefore, to remind me of what he said; or, if you would rather, tell me your own view; for I suspect that you and he think much alike. Men.

PLATO Pioneers
Computer-Assisted Learning
The creation of PLATO (Programmed Logic for Automated Teaching Operations), a computer-based learning environment developed by physicists and engineers at the University of Illinois, represented the first use of a computer for pedagogy, the first time-shared education system, and the home of the first on-line community. "At its heart," PLATO historian Brian Dear declares, "PLATO was the first major social computing environment." Before Usenet, before Habitat, before The Well, PLATO users were logging millions of hours on the system, posting 3.3 million messages in an eight-year period. Daniel Alpert (Physics) and Don Bitzer (EE) became interested in using computers for teaching in 1959, and with some colleagues, founded the Computer-based Education Research Laboratory (CERL) at Illinois as a CSL initiative. Bitzer collaborated with Chalmers Sherwin (Physics) to design the PLATO hardware. A staff of

Francis Herbert Bradley
F.H. Bradley (1846-1924) was the most famous, original and philosophically influential of the British Idealists. These philosophers came to prominence in the closing decades of the nineteenth century, but their effect on British philosophy and society at large and, through the positions of power attained by some of their pupils in the institutions of the British Empire, on much of the world persisted well into the first half of the twentieth. They stood out amongst their peers in consciously rejecting the tradition of their earlier compatriots, such as Hume and Mill, and responding rather to the work of Kant and Hegel. It is for his metaphysics that Bradley has become best known. He argued that our everyday conceptions of the world (as well as those more refined ones common among his philosophical predecessors) contain hidden contradictions which appear, fatally, when we try to think out their consequences. In particular, Bradley rejected on these grounds the view that reality can be understood as consisting of many objects existing independently of each other (pluralism) and of our experience of them (realism). Consistently, his own view combined monism the claim that reality is one, that there are no real separate things with absolute idealism the claim that reality consists solely of idea or experience. This vision of the world had a profound effect on the verse of T.S. Eliot, who studied philosophy at Harvard and wrote a Ph.D. thesis on Bradley.
