Extractions: CHAPTER I BRENTANO AND INTENTIONALITY ROLF GEORGE I Late in his life, Brentano wrote to Oscar Kraus that, when he was a young philosopher, he had had to apprentice himself to a master. But since he was born "at a time of the most lamentable decay of philosophy," he could find no better teacher than "old Aristotle." Thomas Aquinas, he said, helped him to a deeper understanding of the Philosopher. When a Viennese student (of Austrian nobility, presumably) asked Brentano for an inscription in his album, he wrote You, who claim noble descent, hear who my ancestors were! I am of Socrates seed through whom Plato came into being. Plato begot the stagirite whose force has never abated Even today I can claim to be of his issue. Welcome Eudemus, you pious, welcome O brother, and you Godlike in speech, Theophrastus, sweet as the Lesbian wine. Since I was given him late, youngest of all his descendants Loves my father me most, more tenderly than all the others. Brentano was born in 1838. The philosophers who were active when he began his studies Mill, Spencer, Comte, Lange, Lotze, and Trendelenburg are not often thought to be of the first rank, but his derisive remark about the lamentable decay was not aimed at them. His target was, rather, Kant, German idealism, and the Kantian revival. In 1894 Brentano gave a lecture, "The Four Phases of Philosophy," in which he maintained that western philosophy had run through the same four phase cycle three times, with a single period of advance followed by three phases of decline. The first, positive, phase is characterized by a "natural method" (though capable of improvement) and purely theoretical interest. In antiquity, this first period ended with Aristotle. Then came the first decline; theoretical interest is weakened and practical motives begin to predominate in Epicureanism and Stoicism. Philosophy becomes unscientific, and its methods no longer trustworthy. Hence skepticism arose which, dour and unfulfilling, cannot hold back the desire to know. This becomes an irrational urge and leads to the construction of bizarre and ungrounded philosophical systems. Plotinus and other neo Platonists not only claimed higher inspiration but were even accorded divine status in their schools.

Extractions: FAQs What's new Site Map Awards ... Home Search this site: Zurvanism proper differs from orthodoxy in that it posits a principle prior two the Spirits of light and darkness, good and evil -the principle of Infinite Time. There is no evidence that it made any difference to the cult or that any particular reverence was paid to Zurvan as a god. Indeed, there would be singularly little point in doing so, for as the Infinite he is incomprehensible, and as finite Time he is a Fate that cannot be deflected, a law that cannot be altered. Before we leave him to study a little more closely the theology of the orthodox, let us try to see just what kind of god he was. The Sevenfold Zurvan 'Zurvan has even faces, and on each face three eyes,' we read. He is a sevenfold god, and each of seven aspects of his complex nature has three facets. As Infinite Time his three aspects are infinite space, infinite wisdom, and infinite power, that is, an infinite potentiality of initiating contingent beings, whether good or evil. He is passionless and indifferent, 'unageing and deathless; he knows neither pain nor decay nor corruption; he has no rival, nor can he ever be put aside or deprived of his sovereignty in his proper sphere.' He has neither 'pleasure nor pain from the evil of Ahriman or the goodness of Ohrmazd'. As finite Time he is primarily 'he who makes virile, he who makes excellent, and he who makes old'. Alternatively, the order of the attributes is altered and he becomes 'he who makes virile, he who makes old, and he who makes excellent'. As such he is the god of life and death, presiding over the birth, maturity, and death of the body. As

Extractions: In 343/2, he received an invitation to become the tutor of the young Alexander, son of Philip of Macedon; he must have introduced Alexander, then thirteen or fourteen, to Greek literature and culture, and thereby may fairly be said to have influenced the shape of Hellenistic culture (and indeed the whole history of the West). While it would be a mistake to attempt to force a Procrustean systematic unity on the corpus, there are nonetheless recognizable methodological patterns that inform the process of inquiry. Furthermore, these are made more or less explicit in the logical works, which came to be known as the Organon : the Categories On Interpretation Prior and Posterior Analytics Topics , and Sophistical Refutations .

Extractions: 1. The geometer Hippocrates of Chios is sometimes confused with a contemporary of his, the famous physician Hippocrates of Cos , for whom the Hippocratic Oath is named. Not much is known about him past what is read here. He was an accomplished geometer, but was thought to have been otherwise simple-minded. A more detailed biography can be found here 2. John Philoponus, also called Grammaticus, was a sixth century (AD) scholar of philosophy (and a Christian theologian) who studied the texts of Greek philosophers, especially Aristotle, and wrote commentaries on them. A native of Alexandria in Egypt, he comes at the end of the period of Greek progress in the sciences. 3. A lune is a figure bounded by two circular arcs. The term is very descriptive of the resulting shape. 4. We will analyze in detail Hippocrates' quadrature of a lune below. It is enough now to understand the sentiment alluded to in this portion of the text. For the first time, someone had determined the area of a figure with curved sidesin fact, circular sidesand it was thought that the techniques used for the quadrature of the lune might lead to the quadrature of the circle. Simplicius was another sixth century commentator on early Greek texts, notably on the work of Aristotle and Euclid. He was born in Cilicia, a Roman province in modern-day Turkey, studied in Athens at the Academy that Plato had instituted centuries earlier, and served for a time in the court of the Persian king.

Thales Of Miletus [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy] Dercyllides states that Eudemus relates in the Astronomy that Thales was by eudemus of rhodes, a pupil of Aristotle, but which is no longer extant. http://www.iep.utm.edu/t/thales.htm
Extractions: 1. The Writings of Thales Doubts have always existed about whether Thales wrote anything, but a number of ancient reports credit him with writings. Simplicius (Diels, Dox. p. 475) specifically attributed to Thales authorship of the so-called Nautical Star-guide. Diogenes Laertius raised doubts about authenticity, but wrote that 'according to others [Thales] wrote nothing but two treatises, one On the Solstice and one On the Equinox ' (D.L. I.23). Lobon of Argus asserted that the writings of Thales amounted to two hundred lines (D.L. I.34), and Plutarch associated Thales with opinions and accounts expressed in verse (Plutarch, De Pyth. or. 18. 402 E). Hesychius, recorded that '[Thales] wrote on celestial matters in epic verse, on the equinox, and much else' (DK, 11A2). Callimachus credited Thales with the sage advice that navigators should navigate by Ursa Minor (D.L. I.23), advice which may have been in writing. Diogenes mentions a poet, Choerilus, who declared that '[Thales] was the first to maintain the immortality of the soul' (D.L. I.24), and in

However, I should add: anyone seeking a terrifying text on Osseological culture should read A digression on Miller, a chapter from The Thirst for Annihilation: Georges Bataille and Virulent Nihilism , Nicks textual plague whose curse is unfading.

How shall I fight against Nasu, which from the dead enters into the living?" (Vendidad) The Burial of an Empire . It had nothing to do with blood, raw wounds or meat; nor was it the wing of a cult classic performance, bizarropedia or the macabre underground swollen in some kind of theatricalism. It was silent and all glorious as a ceremony of an empire should be: the Persian Empire (an Overstate whose nomads constellated its very army at the margins of Persian lands). It was not a burial; not an inhumation; precisely speaking, it was not a ceremony of 'chambering corpses' (entombment) which provides a dwelling / accommodating system for corpses to be screened and specialized thus in a covert mission eclipsing them within an architectural site, encoding the dead as
