A History of Greek Mathematics, Volume II From Aristarchus to Diophantus【電子書籍】[ Sir Thomas Heath ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>"As it is, the book is indispensable; it has, indeed, no serious English rival." ー <em>Times Literary Supplement</em><br /> "Sir Thomas Heath, foremost English historian of the ancient exact sciences in the twentieth century." ー Prof. W. H. Stahl<br /> "Indeed, seeing that so much of Greek is mathematics, it is arguable that, if one would understand the Greek genius fully, it would be a good plan to begin with their geometry."<br /> The perspective that enabled Sir Thomas Heath to understand the Greek genius ー deep intimacy with languages, literatures, philosophy, and all the sciences ー brought him perhaps closer to his beloved subjects, and to their own ideal of educated men than is common or even possible today. Heath read the original texts with a critical, scrupulous eye and brought to this definitive two-volume history the insights of a mathematician communicated with the clarity of classically taught English.<br /> "Of all the manifestations of the Greek genius none is more impressive and even awe-inspiring than that which is revealed by the history of Greek mathematics." Heath records that history with the scholarly comprehension and comprehensiveness that marks this work as obviously classic now as when it first appeared in 1921. The linkage and unity of mathematics and philosophy suggest the outline for the entire history. Heath covers in sequence Greek numerical notation, Pythagorean arithmetic, Thales and Pythagorean geometry, Zeno, Plato, Euclid, Aristarchus, Archimedes, Apollonius, Hipparchus and trigonometry, Ptolemy, Heron, Pappus, Diophantus of Alexandria and the algebra. Interspersed are sections devoted to the history and analysis of famous problems: squaring the circle, angle trisection, duplication of the cube, and an appendix on Archimedes's proof of the subtangent property of a spiral. The coverage is everywhere thorough and judicious; but Heath is not content with plain exposition: It is a defect in the existing histories that, while they state generally the contents of, and the main propositions proved in, the great treatises of Archimedes and Apollonius, they make little attempt to describe the procedure by which the results are obtained. I have therefore taken pains, in the most significant cases, to show the course of the argument in sufficient detail to enable a competent mathematician to grasp the method used and to apply it, if he will, to other similar investigations.<br /> Mathematicians, then, will rejoice to find Heath back in print and accessible after many years. Historians of Greek culture and science can renew acquaintance with a standard reference; readers in general will find, particularly in the energetic discourses on Euclid and Archimedes, exactly what Heath means by <em>impressive and awe-inspiring.</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Fragility of Goodness Luck and Ethics in Greek Tragedy and Philosophy【電子書籍】[ Martha C. Nussbaum ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book is a study of ancient views about 'moral luck'. It examines the fundamental ethical problem that many of the valued constituents of a well-lived life are vulnerable to factors outside a person's control, and asks how this affects our appraisal of persons and their lives. The Greeks made a profound contribution to these questions, yet neither the problems nor the Greek views of them have received the attention they deserve. This book thus recovers a central dimension of Greek thought and addresses major issues in contemporary ethical theory. One of its most original aspects is its interrelated treatment of both literary and philosophical texts. The Fragility of Goodness has proven to be important reading for philosophers and classicists, and its non-technical style makes it accessible to any educated person interested in the difficult problems it tackles. This edition, first published in 2001, features a preface by Martha Nussbaum.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth Extracted Textually from the Gospels in Greek, Latin, French, and English【電子書籍】[ Thomas Jefferson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In 'The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth,' Thomas Jefferson presents a unique synthesis of the Gospels, meticulously distilling the essence of Jesus's teachings while omitting supernatural elements incongruent with Enlightenment ideals. Jefferson's literary style reflects a rationalist approach, exhibiting clarity and precision, as he seeks to reveal the moral philosophy underpinning Christianity. This work emerges from the broader context of the early 19th-century American Enlightenment, where reason and empirical evidence began to take precedence over traditional dogma, highlighting Jefferson's commitment to reasoned faith and a secular morality informed by the teachings of Jesus. Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States and a pivotal figure in the American Enlightenment, was profoundly influenced by Enlightenment thought and his personal interpretations of religion. His distaste for organized religion and fervent belief in reason prompted him to isolate what he deemed the true moral teachings of Jesus, resulting in a text that serves as both a personal manuscript and a public statement on the vitality of ethical principles devoid of superstition. This book is not simply a theological text; it invites readers to engage with the ethical core of Christianity through an Enlightenment lens. Scholars, theologians, and casual readers alike will find Jefferson's work a unique exploration of Jesus's moral teachings, rendering it a thought-provoking addition to discussions of religion, philosophy, and ethics in contemporary society.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Chain of Gold Greek Rhetoric in the Roman Empire【電子書籍】[ Susan C. Jarratt ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Barred from political engagement and legal advocacy, the second sophists composed and performed epideictic works for audiences across the Mediterranean world during the early centuries of the Common Era. In a wide-ranging study, author Susan C. Jarratt argues that these artfully wrought discourses, formerly considered vacuous entertainments, constitute intricate negotiations with the absolute power of the Roman Empire. Positioning culturally Greek but geographically diverse sophists as colonial subjects, Jarratt offers readings that highlight ancient debates over free speech and figured discourse, revealing the subtly coded commentary on Roman authority and governance embedded in these works.</p> <p>Through allusions to classical Greek literature, sophists such as Dio Chrysostom, Aelius Aristides, and Philostratus slipped oblique challenges to empire into otherwise innocuous works. Such figures protected their creators from the danger of direct confrontation but nonetheless would have been recognized by elite audiences, Roman and Greek alike, by virtue of their common education. Focusing on such moments, Jarratt presents close readings of city encomia, biography, and texts in hybrid genres from key second sophistic figures, setting each in its geographical context. Although all the authors considered are male, the analyses here bring to light reflections on gender, ethnicity, skin color, language differences, and sexuality, revealing an underrecognized diversity in the rhetorical activity of this period.<br /> While US scholars of ancient rhetoric have focused largely on the pedagogical, Jarratt brings a geopolitical lens to her study of the subject. Her inclusion of fourth-century textsーthe Greek novel <em>Ethiopian Story</em>, by Heliodorus, and the political orations of Libanius of Antiochーextends the temporal boundary of the period. She concludes with speculations about the pressures brought to bear on sophistic political subjectivity by the rise of Christianity and with ruminations on a third sophistic in ancient and contemporary eras of empire.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Today, more than ever, people are visiting Greece and the Greek Islands, returning with haunting memories of delicate pastries, skewered lamb flavored with oregano and garlic, tantalizing casseroles, and delicious vegetables bathed in rich golden sauces.<br /> They, as well as many American home-makers with an inquisitive palate and a desire to increase their repertoire of cooking, will find infinite pleasure between the pages of this book.<br /> The Art of Greek Cookery is composed of family recipes, tested and perfected in American kitchens for American cooks. Many dishes nearly forgotten through the years have been included.<br /> Some of the mouth-watering recipes are the famous Greek dessert baklava, made with phyllo pastry, nuts, and honey; dolmadakia, stuffed grape vine leaves; moussaka, the popular eggplant and meat dish; and pastichio, made with macaroni, meat, and a rich cream sauce. Also included are special menus; a shopper's guide; an authoritative explanation of Greek feast days, customs, and traditions; and a calendar of major Greek feast days and holidays. The book is delightfully illustrated by Art Seiden.<br /> Here is a wholly authentic book on Greek cuisine.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

A Problem in Greek Ethics Enriched edition. Being an inquiry into the phenomenon of sexual inversion, addressed especially to medical psychologists and jurists【電子書籍】[ John Addington Symonds ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "A Problem in Greek Ethics," John Addington Symonds explores the complexities of pederastic relationships in ancient Greece, scrutinizing the moral and social frameworks that governed them. Employing a rich, eloquent literary style characterized by historical rigor and philosophical inquiry, Symonds delves into the ethical nuances that challenge contemporary understandings of love and mentorship. The book situates itself within the broader context of 19th-century Victorian debates on sexuality, seeking to reassess the values imposed by modern morality upon ancient practices. Symonds, a noted figure of the late Victorian period and an ardent advocate for homosexuality, was profoundly influenced by his own experiences and intellectual milieu. His works not only championed the appreciation of classical literature and art but also sought to dismantle the rigid moral codes of his time, making "A Problem in Greek Ethics" a crucial text in the evolution of queer theory. His personal conflicts around sexuality and a cultural backdrop rife with repression motivated his inquiry into a world where alternative sexualities were more readily accepted. This book is highly recommended for scholars of classical studies, philosophy, and LGBTQ+ history, as well as for any reader interested in the intersections of ethics and sexuality. Symonds' insightful treatment encourages a respectful engagement with the past, inviting a reexamination of our own ethical frameworks. A captivating read that illuminates the richness and complexity of human desire across time.

A History of Greek Mathematics, Volume I From Thales to Euclid【電子書籍】[ Sir Thomas Heath ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>"As it is, the book is indispensable; it has, indeed, no serious English rival." ー <em>Times Literary Supplement</em>.<br /> "Sir Thomas Heath, foremost English historian of the ancient exact sciences in the twentieth century." ー Professor W. H. Stahl<br /> "Indeed, seeing that so much of Greek is mathematics, it is arguable that, if one would understand the Greek genius fully, it would be a good plan to begin with their geometry."<br /> The perspective that enabled Sir Thomas Heath to understand the Greek genius ー deep intimacy with languages, literatures, philosophy, and all the sciences ー brought him perhaps closer to his beloved subjects and to their own ideal of educated men, than is common or even possible today. Heath read the original texts with a critical, scrupulous eye, and brought to this definitive two-volume history the insights of a mathematician communicated with the clarity of classically taught English.<br /> "Of all the manifestations of the Greek genius none is more impressive and even awe-inspiring than that which is revealed by the history of Greek mathematics." Heath records that history with the scholarly comprehension and comprehensiveness that marks this work as obviously classic now as when it first appeared in 1921. The linkage and unity of mathematics and philosophy suggest the outline for the entire history. Heath covers in sequence Greek numerical notation, Pythagorean arithmetic, Thales and Pythagorean geometry, Zeno, Plato, Euclid, Aristarchus, Archimedes, Apollonius, Hipparchus and trigonometry, Ptolemy, Heron, Pappus, Diophantus of Alexandria and the algebra. Interspersed are sections devoted to the history and analysis of famous problems: squaring the circle, angle trisection, duplication of the cube, and an appendix on Archimedes' proof of the subtangent property of a spiral. The coverage is everywhere thorough and judicious; but Heath is not content with plain exposition:<br /> It is a defect in the existing histories that, while they state generally the contents of, and the main propositions proved in, the great treatises of Archimedes and Apollonius, they make little attempt to describe the procedure by which the results are obtained. I have therefore taken pains, in the most significant cases, to show the course of the argument in sufficient detail to enable a competent mathematician to grasp the method used and to apply it, if he will, to other similar investigations.<br /> Mathematicians, then, will rejoice to find Heath back in print and accessible after many years. Historians of Greek culture and science can renew acquaintance with a standard reference; readers in general will find, particularly in the energetic discourses on Euclid and Archimedes, exactly what Heath means by <em>impressive and awe-inspiring</em>.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Trojan Women of Euripides Exploring the emotional depth and intellectual complexity of a timeless Greek tragedy【電子書籍】[ Euripides ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Euripides' *The Trojan Women* is a poignant exploration of the aftermath of war, articulated through the lens of the captive women of Troy, who endure the anguish of loss and despair following their city'??s destruction. Written in 415 BCE during the height of the Peloponnesian War, the play employs a devastatingly emotional style and is marked by Euripides' innovative use of dialogue and character development. The stark realism and psychological depth set it apart from earlier works, embodying dramatic irony as the fate of the women poignantly reflects the wider consequences of conflict and the fragility of human dignity amidst brutality. Euripides, one of ancient Greece's three great tragedians, was renowned for his ability to infuse traditional myth with contemporary issues, often illuminating the plight of marginalized voices in society. His experiences during tumultuous times influenced his writing, enabling him to critique societal norms and highlight the suffering that often accompanies warfare, particularly for women. This deep empathy is unmistakably woven into the fabric of *The Trojan Women*, a timeless testament to the resilience of the human spirit. For those seeking a profound engagement with themes of suffering, resilience, and the human condition, *The Trojan Women* is an essential read. Euripides not only captures the emotional landscape of his characters but also invites contemporary audiences to reflect on the societal wounds of conflict and the persistent echoes of history. This tragedy remains strikingly relevant, offering crucial insights into the enduring impact of war, making it a cornerstone of classical literature.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Bulfinch's Greek and Roman Mythology The Age of Fable【電子書籍】[ Thomas Bulfinch ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>First published in 1855, Bulfinch's <em>Mythology</em> has introduced generations of readers to the great myths of Greece and Rome, as well as time-honored legends of Norse mythology, medieval, and chivalric tales, Oriental fables, and more. Readers have long admired Bulfinch's versions for the skill with which he wove various versions of a tale into a coherent whole, the vigor of his storytelling, and his abundant cross-references to poetry and painting, demonstrating the relationship of literature and art.<br /> Now <em>The Age of Fable,</em> the first section of the <em>Mythology,</em> is available in this inexpensive, highly readable edition. Drawing on the works of Homer, Ovid, Virgil, and other classical authors, as well as an immense trove of stories about the Norse gods and heroes, <em>The Age of Fable</em> offers lively retellings of the myths of the Greek and Roman gods: Venus and Adonis, Jupiter and Juno, Daphne and Apollo, and many others.<br /> The myths and legends so vividly retold in this volume underlie much of the art, literature, and culture of Western civilization. As Bulfinch put it, "Without a knowledge of mythology, much of the elegant literature of our own language cannot be understood and appreciated." With this inexpensive edition of <em>The Age of Fable,</em> readers can immerse themselves in these seminal myths, increasing their appreciation and understanding of Western culture, while enjoying the myths purely as the great stories they are.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
