Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Porphyry, the Philosopher, to His Wife, Marcella No body of men should attract more interest, and within certain limits more sympathy, than those who in the third and fourth centuries stood forth as the champions of the creed and civilisation of the ancient world. It is true that they failed to understand their age; it is also true that to the believer in that Providential government of the world known to the philosopher as "the survival of the fittest," the fact that their cause was lost is sufficient proof that in its own brief day it was not fitting that it should live.

Download or read book How Greek Science Passed On To The Arabs written by Delacy O'Leary and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-22 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2002. The history of science is one of knowledge being passed from community to community over thousands of years, and this is the classic account of the most influential of these movements -how Hellenistic science passed to the Arabs where it took on a new life and led to the development of Arab astronomy and medicine which flourished in the courts of the Muslim world, later passing on to medieval Europe. Starting with the rise of Hellenism in Asia in the wake of the campaigns of Alexander the Great, O'Leary deals with the Greek legacy of science, philosophy, mathematics and medicine and follows it as it travels across the Near East propelled by religion, trade and conquest. Dealing in depth with Christianity as a Hellenizing force, the influence of the Nestorians and the Monophysites; Indian influences by land and sea and the rise of Buddhism, O'Leary then focuses on the development of science during the Baghdad Khalifate, the translation of Greek scientific material into Arabic, and the effect for all those interested in the history of medicine and science, and of historical geography as well as the history of the Arab world.
Download or read book Delphi Collected Works of Porphyry Illustrated written by Porphyry of Tyre and published by Delphi Classics. This book was released on 2023-09-07 with total page 1890 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porphyry of Tyre was a third-century Neoplatonic philosopher and follower of Plotinus. He edited and published ‘The Enneads’, the only collection of his teacher’s work. Porphyry also wrote original works in Greek on a wide variety of topics, including philosophy, religion, vegetarianism, philology and science, while revealing a scholarly care in citing authorities. His influential work ‘Isagoge’, an introduction to logic and philosophy, was the standard textbook on logic throughout the Middle Ages. Surviving fragments of ‘Against the Christians’, which was condemned in 448 to be burned, marked him as a fierce critic of the new religion.
