Download or read book Timaeus written by Plato and published by Aeterna Press. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OF all the writings of Plato the Timaeus is the most obscure and repulsive to the modern reader, and has nevertheless had the greatest influence over the ancient and mediaeval world. The obscurity arises in the infancy of physical science, out of the confusion of theological, mathematical, and physiological notions, out of the desire to conceive the whole of nature without any adequate knowledge of the parts, and from a greater perception of similarities which lie on the surface than of differences which are hidden from view.

  • ISBN : 9781609425173
  • Pages : 100 pages

Download or read book The Timaeus and The Critias written by Plato and published by Iap - Information Age Pub. Incorporated. This book was released on 2019-05 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among all the writings of Plato the Timaeus is the most obscure to the modern reader, and has nevertheless had the greatest influence over the ancient and mediaeval world. The Critias is a fragment and it was designed to be the second part of a trilogy. Timaeus had brought down the origin of the world to the creation of man, and the dawn of history was now to succeed the philosophy of nature. It tells us about Atlantis and Critias returns to this story, professing only to repeat what Solon was told by the priests. The war of which he was about to speak had occurred 9000 years ago. One of the combatants was the city of Athens, the other was the great island of Atlantis.

Book Barbarous Dissonance and Images of Voice in Milton s Epics

Download or read book Barbarous Dissonance and Images of Voice in Milton s Epics written by Elizabeth Sauer and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1996-08-27 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sauer investigates the texts' discursive practices and the politics of their orchestration of voice exploring the ways in which Milton's multivocal poems interrogated dominant structures of authority in the seventeenth century and constructed in their place a community of voices characterized by dissonances. She incorporates different critical responses to Milton's texts into her argument as a way of contextualizing her own historically engaged approach. By injecting concepts such as multiple narrators and genres, open forms, strategic deferrals, and the exchanges between the poetic voices and discourses of the early modern period, Sauer tells us something about how the poems spoke to their own time as well as how they may be recuperated to speak to ours.
