Intentionality And Isomorphism In Aristotle, Christopher Shields Apr 1994

Intentionality And Isomorphism In Aristotle, Christopher Shields

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

In this paper I investigate one central source of Aristotle's dissatisfaction with a comprehensive analogy between aisthêsis and noêsis. I will argue that his conception of nous as organless is neither empirically motivated nor obviously misguided. On the contrary, Aristotle's insistence that nous is separate and unmixed with the body is grounded in an approach to intentionality nascent in his treatment of noêsis. This approach to intentionality helps motivate the special status he awards nous.


Aristotle On Good And Bad Actualities, Owen Goldin Apr 1994

Aristotle On Good And Bad Actualities, Owen Goldin

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

This paper is a discussion of one of the more neglected passages in the central books of Aristotle's Metaphysics, Θ 9 105la4~19. In this passage Aristotle makes some assertions concerning relations that hold among potentialities and actualities, both good and bad. These assertions seem to be made as an afterthought, and their relation to the analysis of potentiality and actuality that precedes is unclear. I shall argue that in this passage Aristotle is in effect providing a metaphysical foundation for the normative component of a teleological analysis of composite substance. I consider certain difficulties in reconciling the text with the …


Change And Contrariety: Problems Plato Set For Aristotle, Charles Young, James Bogen Apr 1994

Change And Contrariety: Problems Plato Set For Aristotle, Charles Young, James Bogen

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

Plato's views on change and contrariety arise from concerns about definition and explanation in the aporetic Socratic dialogues that find more systematic analysis and resolution in the more constructive dialogues that follow. After developing these concerns, analyses, and solutions, we sketch Aristotle's quite different treatment of the same and other related issues.

Review: Lucan: Civil War, John F. Makowski Mar 1994

Review: Lucan: Civil War, John F. Makowski

Classical Studies: Faculty Publications and Other Works

This is the second major translation of Lucan to appear in the English-speaking world, following the publication in 1988 of P. F. Widdows' verse rendition by Indiana University Press. At the time this reviewer, like others, acclaimed Widdows' Lucan as excellent, but now here is Braund's version, also in verse and also of high quality. Comparison of Widdows and Braund is inevitable and indeed imperative, especially for the purchaser with an eye to economy who will have to decide whether to spend $47.50 for Widdows or the astonishing sum of almost twice that much for Braund.

Whip, Whipped, And Doctors: Homer's Illiad And Camus' The Plague, Paula Saffire

Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS

Albert Camus in The Plague gives a pressing, pitilessly clear description of plague conditions:' We are all locked in a city. The gates are closed. The plague rages inside. The only question is, who will die first? This is the situation in Camus' town of Oran; it is also the situation of the Trojans in Homer's Illiad. And finally, it is the situation of human life.'

Hebrew Censorship In Hanau: A Mirror Of Jewish-Christian Coexistence In Seventeenth-Century Germany, Stephen G. Burnett Jan 1994

Hebrew Censorship In Hanau: A Mirror Of Jewish-Christian Coexistence In Seventeenth-Century Germany, Stephen G. Burnett

Department of Classics and Religious Studies: Faculty Publications

Hebrew printing was an important channel of cultural and religious expression for the Jews of early modern Europe. Printed service books aided public worship, and works of popular piety, often written in Yiddish or Ladino, enabled “women and ignorant men” to learn the rudiments of halakhic practice. The printing press also made it possible for rabbis to own their own copies of talmudic tractates, responsa collections and books of sermons. Printing helped Sephardic refugees from Spain to maintain their distinctive intellectual and religious identity and some of their traditions in their lands of exile. While printing was a powerful means …

The Will Of Gaius Longinus Castor, James G. Keenan Jan 1994

The Will Of Gaius Longinus Castor, James G. Keenan

Classical Studies: Faculty Publications and Other Works

The document under discussion has recently been called "one of the very few examples of pure Roman law found in Egypt." It is the will of Gaius Longinus Castor, resident of the Egyptian village of Karanis, veteran of the praetorian fleet of Misenum, who died in the year 194. The will itself provides a freeze frame, a still point in time in Longinus Castor's life; but it also allows for some imaginative extension in space and time. The results are a brief, outline biography of the testator with some speculation on his career and family, and on the special objectives …
