Knowledge Of Atoms And Void In Epicureanism, David J. Furley

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

There is an obvious paradox in the theories of the Atomists. If knowledge comes to us by means of sensation, how are we to explain the atomist's knowledge of the basic propositions of his special theory: that the world consists of void, which is called 'the intangible', and atoms, which are said to be imperceptibly small? Epicurus' method was to set up a pair of contradictories - either there is a void or there is not, either matter is infinitely divisible or it is not - and then to present an argument for rejecting one of them.

Mind's Commitment To The Real: Parmenides B8.34ff, Alexander P.D. Mourelatos

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

It is through an analysis of this passage that I can explain most clearly and directly a certain conception of the relation of mind to reality for which I also find evidence in other texts, in some of the characteristic aspects and themes of Parmenicles' poem, and which I consider philosophically and historically important.,

Is There A Well Defined Scientific Method?, William R. Charlesworth

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

The question "Is there a well defined scientific method?" can be answered in three ways: by referring to existing discourse on the nature of method; by pointing to concrete examples in which the method is applied in real life situations; and by creating a taxonomy of the behavioral and psychological operations that constitute the scientific process. The last way was proposed as the most fruitful of the three. Two major classes of operations and their subclasses were discussed, along with operations of thought and behavior that are antithetical to scientific method. The importance of the psychologist's contribution to answering philosophical …

The Evolution Of Sacred Dance In The Judeo-Christian Tradition, Jade Luerssen '67

Honors Projects

The universe is permeated by rhythm, harmony , and patterned movement--the movement of stars through the galaxy, the rotation of the earth, the rising and setting of the sun, the seasons, the cycle of birth, growth and death. Therefore, it is perfectly natural that man respond deeply and significantly to these ordered rhythms that make up his life, his world , and his universe .

The Argument For Immortality In Plato's Phaedrus, Thomas M. Robinson

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

The Phaedrus seems to be saying that soul is the cause of all movement in an organized world, a world measurable by Time. In a non-organized world not measurable by Time one can wonder whether the movement in question has anything to do with this. At this stage words start to break down under the strain. Plato is compelled to give some description of the pre-cosmic chaos, and talk of movement in such a world is no more and no less intelligible than phrases like 'before this' (53a8) in the same passage, when Time has been admitted to be absent. …

The Early Philosophical Method Of Jean-Paul Sartre, Walter Richard Wood

Philosophy ETDs

Existentialism, in post war years, has achieved not only an international philosophical standing, but in addition has made itself felt in a multitude of contemporary affairs - from psychology and literature to politics and social ethics. A large measure of this propagation of existentialism has been due to the varied accomplishments of Jean-Paul Sartre. As a forceful intellectual, Sartre continues to arouse support and controversy for his radical and dramatic ideas in every field he approaches; yet at the heart of all this activity is the man’s philosophy. Although Sartre has contributed in major ways to philosophical discourse, there is …

ACKNOWLEDGING the fact of last month's outer-space rendezvous of Gemini 6 and 7 is one thing; realization of its meaning and ultimate significance is quite another. To groundlings in Southeast Kansas, the whole magnificent but virtually incredible achievement is too far out rationally as well as spatially. Moreover, there seems to us to be a more than ample supply of earthbound (even earthy) problems which cry for attention, questions which require fuller discussion, matters more immediate than moon-shots. The contents of this winter issue demonstrate our prior involvement in matters more humane and, to us …
