Download or read book Summoning Knowledge in Plato s Republic written by Nicholas D. Smith and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2019-07-04 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nicholas D. Smith presents an original interpretation of the Republic, considering it to be a book about knowledge and education. Over the course of Summoning Knowledge in Plato's Republic, he argues for four main theses. Firstly, the Republic is not just a work that has a lot to say about education; it is a book that depicts Socrates as attempting to engage his interlocutors in such a way as to help to educate them and also engages us, the readers, in a way that helps to educate us. Secondly, Plato does not suppose that education, properly understood, should have as its primary aim putting knowledge into souls that do not already have it. Instead, the education Plato discusses, represents occurring between Socrates and his interlocutors, and hopes to achieve in his readers is one that aims to arouse the power of knowledge in us and then to begin to train that power always to engage with what is more real, rather than what is less real. Thirdly, Plato's conception of knowledge is not the one typically presented in contemporary epistemology. It is, rather, the power of conceptualization by the use of exemplars. And finally, Plato engages this power of knowledge in the Republic in a way he represents as only a kind of second-best way to engage knowledge - and not as the best way, which would be dialectic. Instead, Plato uses images that summon the power of knowledge to begin the process by which the power may become fully realized.

Download or read book Mini Tennis On Court Red written by Roger Stenquist and published by Roger Stenquist. This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you as a tennis coach want to get a ready-to-go concept with 73 physical drills, 64 basic tennis drills with 3-12 variations of each drill, progressive development week by week over 2 years time and a red thread at Mini Tennis level? In that case, the book ”Mini Tennis - On Court Red” may be the right book for you. Through this book, the coach can systematically train their players step by step in order to get the player even more technically, physically and tactically developed. Background; This book is based on a concept from the International Tennis Federation, "Play and Stay" and "tennis 10s". This concept aims to simplify the tennis game for players during the first years. Previously, there were two steps to go, but with the new concept you have two further steps. The steps are now red (mini tennis), orange (midi tennis), green (maxi tennis) and yellow (regular ball). With the different colors comes different balls, different sizes of the rackets and different sizes of the tennis court. This makes it easier for the player to learn to serve, rally, and score very early. This book focuses on red level (mini tennis).

Download or read book Abhidharmakosa Bhasya of Vasubandhu written by Gelong Lodro Sangpo and published by Motilal Banarsidass. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 2516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vasubandhu's Abhidharmakosa-Bhasya (ca. 380-390), besides its culminating achievement in streamlining the overall structure of the exposition of the preceding Abhidharma manuals, is unmatched by any of the preceding manuals in respect of its comprehensiveness-incorporating all important Vaibhasika doctrines since the time of the Abhidharma-mahavibhasa-of its excellent skill in definition and elucidation, and of its ability to clarify the difficult point involved in doctrinal disputations. Added to these qualities is its great value as a brilliant critique and insightful revaluation of all the fundamental Sar-vastivada doctrines developed up to its time. Since its appearance, it has been used as a standard textbook for the understanding of not only the Abhidharma doctrines but all the fundamental Buddhist doctrines in general. Translated into Chinese by Paramartha in 563 A.D. and by Hsuan-tsang in 651-654 A.D., Hsuan-tsang's disciple P'u-kuang tells us that in India the Abhidharmakosa-Bhasya was hailed as the 'Book of Intelligence'. In China, Japan and the Far-east, too, the Kosa has generally been highly treasured as a textbook of fundamental importance for Buddhist studies. Vasubandhu's brilliant critique of the doctrines of the Vaibhasika was answered by the equally brilliant Samghabhadra - a contemporary staunch defender and expounder of the doctrines of the Vaibhasikas - in his masterwork, the Abhidharmanyayanusara, now extant only in Hsuan-tsang's translation (653-654 A.D.). The Sanskrit text, considered for a long time to be irremediably lost, was discovered by Rahula Samkrtyayana in 1935 in the Tibetan monastery of Ngor and was published by P. Pradhan in 1967 (1st edition).
