     Extractions: Thursday, Aug 25, 2005 Google just launched Google Talk Tim Bray is wondering what the fuss is about. Indeed, it’s just a Jabber server. Anyone can run a Jabber server. There’s nothing special about what Google did, here. The big news about this story, in my opinion, is simply that Google are endorsing XMPP The fragmentation between IM services and the segregation it forces has been bemoaned for years, but no significant inroads have been made. The third-party, multi-protocol clients are still fighting an uphill battle. Jabber, in contrast, allows users to add JID s from other Jabber servers to their roster, provided both servers are configured to talk to others. If XMPP actually got widespread adoption, IM could become decentralized the way email is. Unfortunately, Google’s server won’t talk to other servers. At this stage, it’s just for Google Talk users to talk to each other. But if Google’s move into this space can widen the installed base of XMPP clients and raise awareness enough that everyone not only can , but wants to and has incentive to run a Jabber server, then the walled gardens of the big providers will eventually come down. That would do the world good.

102. Aristotle's Psychology
     Recounts the principal and distinctive claims of aristotle's psychological writings, especially De Anima. By Christopher Shields of the University of Colorado.  
     http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/aristotle-psychology/
     
     Extractions: Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free Aristotle (384-322 BC) was born in Macedon, in what is now northern Greece, but spent most of his adult life in Athens. His life in Athens divides into two periods, first as a member of Plato's Academy (367-347) and later as director of his own school, the Lyceum (334-323). The intervening years were spent mainly in Assos and Lesbos, and briefly back in Macedon. His years away from Athens were predominantly taken up with biological research and writing. Judged on the basis of their content, Aristotle's most important psychological writings probably belong to his second residence in Athens, and so to his most mature period. His principal work in psychology, De Anima , reflects in different ways his pervasive interest in biological taxonomy and his most sophisticated physical and metaphysical theory.

     Article by V.I. Markin, Moscow State University.  
     http://www.logic.ru/Engl/depart/Markin1.htm
     
     Extractions: (In: Logical Investigations. Vol. 4. Moscow: Nauka, 1997, in Russian) Abstract Assertoric Aristotle's syllogistic formulated in the opening chapters of Prior Analytics deals with categorical propositions containing only general positive (primitive) terms. However, some fragments of his tractates contain many examples of reasoning including propositions with singular and negative terms, he pointed out certain types of valid and invalid inferences of this kind, formulated truth definitions for such propositions. The purpose of the paper is to reconstruct Aristotelian type singular negative syllogistic by means of modern logic. I introduce the formal language of syllogistic with singular and negative terms that reflects the peculiarity of their usage by Aristotle. According to him, a singular term occurs only as a subject but never as a predicate, singular propositions are considered as a special kind of propositions which couldn't be reduced to universal or particular ones, negative terms can be constructed only from general terms. The alphabet contains a list of primitive general terms, a list of singular terms, term negation operator (it forms general negative term S from a general term S ), usual syllogistic constants

     Extractions: Passages relating to Zeno in the Doxographists [Page 112] Zeno of Elea, son of Teleutagoras, was born early in the-fifth century B.C. He was the pupil of Parmenides, and his relations with him were so intimate that Plato calls him Parmenides's son (Soph. 241 D). Strabo (vi. 1, 1) applies to him as well as to his master the name Pythagorean, and gives him the credit of advancing the cause of law and order in Elea. Several writers say that he taught in Athens for a while. There are numerous accounts of his capture as party to a conspiracy; these accounts differ widely from each other, and the only point of agreement between them has reference to his determination in shielding his fellow conspirators. We find reference to one book which he wrote in prose (Plato, Parm. 127 c), each section of which showed the absurdity of some element in the popular belief.

     Extractions: Aristotle (384-322 BC), Greek philosopher and scientist, who shares with Plato and Socrates the distinction of being the most famous of ancient philosophers. Aristotle was born at Stagira, in Macedonia, the son of a physician to the royal court. At the age of 17, he went to Athens to study at Plato's Academy. He remained there for about 20 years, as a student and then as a teacher. When Plato died in 347 BC, Aristotle moved to Assos, a city in Asia Minor, where a friend of his, Hermias, was ruler. There he counseled Hermias and married his niece and adopted daughter, Pythias. After Hermias was captured and executed by the Persians in 345 BC, Aristotle went to Pella, the Macedonian capital, where he became the tutor of the king's young son Alexander, later known as Alexander the Great. In 335, when Alexander became king, Aristotle returned to Athens and established his own school, the Lyceum. Because much of the discussion in his school took place while teachers and students were walking about the Lyceum grounds, Aristotle's school came to be known as the Peripatetic (“walking” or “strolling”) school. Upon the death of Alexander in 323 BC, strong anti-Macedonian feeling developed in Athens, and Aristotle retired to a family estate in Euboea. He died there the following year. Works Aristotle, like Plato, made regular use of the dialogue in his earliest years at the Academy, but lacking Plato's imaginative gifts, he probably never found the form congenial. Apart from a few fragments in the works of later writers, his dialogues have been wholly lost. Aristotle also wrote some short technical notes, such as a dictionary of philosophic terms and a summary of the doctrines of Pythagoras. Of these, only a few brief excerpts have survived. Still extant, however, are Aristotle's lecture notes for carefully outlined courses treating almost every branch of knowledge and art. The texts on which Aristotle's reputation rests are largely based on these lecture notes, which were collected and arranged by later editors.

114. Aristotle's Rhetoric
     Discussion of one of aristotle's major works; by Christof Rapp.  
     http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/aristotle-rhetoric/
     
     Extractions: Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free Aristotle's rhetoric has had an enormous influence on the development of the art of rhetoric. Not only authors writing in the peripatetic tradition, but also the famous Roman teachers of rhetoric, such as Cicero and Quintilian, frequently used elements stemming from the Aristotelian doctrine. Nevertheless, these authors were neither interested in an authentic interpretation of the Aristotelian works nor in the philosophical sources and backgrounds of the vocabulary that Aristotle had introduced into rhetorical theory. Thus, for two millennia the interpretation of Aristotelian rhetoric has become a matter of the history of rhetoric, not of philosophy. In the most influential manuscripts and editions, Aristotle's Rhetoric was surrounded by rhetorical works and even written speeches of other Greek and Latin authors, and was seldom interpreted in the context of the whole Corpus Aristotelicum. It was not until the last few decades that the philosophically salient features of the Aristotelian rhetoric were rediscovered: in construing a general theory of the persuasive, Aristotle applies numerous concepts and arguments which are also treated in his logical, ethical, and psychological writings. His theory of rhetorical arguments, for example, is only one further application of his general doctrine of the

     Extractions: Library Aristotle Online Dictionary Spelling Center Aristotle was born in 384 B.C.E. in Stagirus, Macedonia, Greece, the son of Nicomachus, a medical doctor, and Phaestis. Little is known about Aristotle's early years, though he was almost certainly meant to become a doctor like his father, who died when Aristotle was ten years old. As his mother had died some years earlier, Aristotle was brought up by Proxenus of Atarneus, possibly a family friend or uncle. Proxenus taught Aristotle poetry, Greek, and public speaking; Aristotle had already learned science as a part of his early medical training by his father. At seventeen, Proxenus sent Aristotle to Athens to continue his education under Plato. Aristotle differed from Plato in some of his views and beliefs. While Aristotle agreed with Plato that the cosmos is designed in a rational way, Aristotle thought that the universal could be found in particular things, while Plato believed the universal exists apart from particular things. Plato focused on mathematics and metaphysics, while Aristotle focused on physics, mechanics, and biology (nature). Despite these differences, after Plato's death in 347 B.C.E., Aristotle continued in his association with other Platonists.

116. 20th WCP: The Modernity Of Aristotle’s Logical Investigations
     Article by George Boger, presented at the 20th World Congress in Philosophy.  
     http://www.bu.edu/wcp/Papers/Logi/LogiBoge.htm
     
     Extractions: BOGER@wehle.canisius.edu ABSTRACT: Prior Analytics is a metalogical treatise on the syllogistic deduction system; 3) Aristotle recognized the epistemic efficacy of certain elemental argument patterns, and he explicitly formulated them as rules of natural deduction in corresponding sentences; 4) Prior Analytics is a proof-theoretic treatise in which Aristotle describes a natural deduction system and demonstrates certain of the logical relationships among syllogistic deduction rules (Aristotle modeled his syllogistic logic in a rudimentary way for this purpose and metasystematically established the independence of a set of deduction rules); and finally, 5) Aristotle worked with a notion of substitution sufficient for distinguishing logical syntax and semantics. In this connection he also distinguished validity from deducibility sufficiently well to note the completeness of his logic Introduction Prior Analytics : (1) logic is taken as part of epistemology; (2) syllogistic deduction is treated metalogically; (3) rules of natural deduction are explicitly formulated; (4) the syllogistic system is modeled to demonstrate logical relationships among its rules; and (5) logical syntax is distinguished from semantics. While each of these features is perhaps familiar to us, when they are viewed together they reveal the striking philosophical modernity of an ancient logician.
