86. Damascius: The Life Of Hypatia From The Suda
    Jeremiah Reedy's translation of this early biographical source, originally from Damascius' Life of Isidore.  
    http://cosmopolis.com/alexandria/hypatia-bio-suda.html
    
    Extractions: Reprinted with permission from Alexandria 2 HYPATIA, daughter of Theon the geometer and philosopher of Alexandria, was herself a well-known philosopher. She was the wife of the philosopher Isidorus, and she flourished under the Emperor Arcadius. Author of a commentary on Diophantus, she also wrote a work called The Astronomical Canon and a commentary on The Conics of Apollonius. She was torn apart by the Alexandrians and her body was mocked and scattered through the whole city. This happened because of envy and her outstanding wisdom especially regarding astronomy. Some say Cyril was responsible for this outrage; others blame the Alexandrians' innate ferocity and violent tendencies for they dealt with many of their bishops in the same manner, for example George and Proterius. Hypatia was born, reared, and educated in Alexandria. Since she had greater genius than her father, she was not satisfied with his instruction in mathematical subjects; she also devoted herself diligently to all of philosophy. The woman used to put on her philosopher's cloak and walk through the middle of town and publicly interpret Plato, Aristotle, or the works of any other philosopher to those who wished to hear her. In addition to her expertise in teaching she rose to the pinnacle of civic virtue. She was both just and chaste and remained always a virgin. She was so beautiful and shapely that one of her students fell in love with her and was unable to control himself and openly showed her a sign of his infatuation. Uninformed reports had Hypatia curing him of his affliction with the help of music. The truth is that the story about music is corrupt. Actually, she gathered rags that had been stained during her period and showed them to him as a sign of her unclean descent and said, "This is what you love, young man, and it isn't beautiful!" He was so affected by shame and amazement at the ugly sight that he experienced a change of heart and went away a better man.

    hypatia of Alexandria by Maria Dzielska Translatedby F. Lyra, published by Harvard University Press.  
    http://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog/DZIHYP.html
    
    Extractions: Hypatiabrilliant mathematician, eloquent Neoplatonist, and a woman renowned for her beautywas brutally murdered by a mob of Christians in Alexandria in 415. She has been a legend ever since. In this engrossing book, Maria Dzielska searches behind the legend to bring us the real story of Hypatia's life and death, and new insight into her colorful world. Historians and poets, Victorian novelists and contemporary feminists have seen Hypatia as a symbolof the waning of classical culture and freedom of inquiry, of the rise of fanatical Christianity, or of sexual freedom. Dzielska shows us why versions of Hypatia's legend have served her champions' purposes, and how they have distorted the true story. She takes us back to the Alexandria of Hypatia's day, with its Library and Museion, pagan cults and the pontificate of Saint Cyril, thriving Jewish community and vibrant Greek culture, and circles of philosophers, mathematicians, astronomers, and militant Christians. Drawing on the letters of Hypatia's most prominent pupil, Synesius of Cyrene, Dzielska constructs a compelling picture of the young philosopher's disciples and her teaching. Finally she plumbs her sources for the facts surrounding Hypatia's cruel death, clarifying what the murder tells us about the tensions of this tumultuous era.

    Reviews of hypatia of Alexandria by Maria Dzielska Translatedby F. Lyra, published by Harvard University Press.  
    http://www.hup.harvard.edu/reviews/DZIHYP_R.html
    
    Extractions: Translated by F. Lyra "This gem of academic detective work may be the last word on a subject that has fascinated for centuries." Anthony Gottlieb, New York Times Book Review "Like Cleopatra, Mary Magdalene, Joan of Arc...Hypatia has been retailored to suit the psychic needs of anybody retrospecting her, rational, romantic, nostalgic, or loony. [In this book] Dzielska demystifies Hypatia, sifting patiently through the original sources, from the Sud lexicon to the correspondence of Synesius of Cyrene." John Leonard, The Nation "Through a subtle reading of the ancient sources, Dzielska reconstructs a powerful and persuasive account of Hypatia's life. She also addresses the difficult task of describing her philosophy...with engagement and finesse." Wilbur R. Knorr, Science "[A] pithy and engaging attempt to state what we actually know about Hypatia." Carlin Romano, Philadelphia Inquirer "Hypatia, an exceptional philosopher, mathematician and high profile public figure of late fourth and early fifth century Alexandria, ironically owes her fame in history to the violent and politically contentious nature of her death in 415 AD. From the moment she was brutally murdered by a mob of angry Christians, Hypatia became a legend, a figure who has ever since been used and manipulated by artists, writers, poets and feminists.

    hypatia of Alexandria (355415), hypatia of Alexandria was a femaleneo-Platonic philosopher who died at the hands of a mob in 415.  
    http://www.malaspina.com/site/person_665.asp
    
    Extractions: Hypatia of Alexandria was a female neo- Platonic philosopher who died at the hands of a mob in 415. Some authors have attributed her death to Cyril of Alexandria and used her death as a symbol of reasoned paganism against irrational religion. Included among these authors was the astronomer Carl Sagan whose vivid account of her death and the burning of the Library of Alexandria in his popular science book Cosmos has unfortunately lead to an incorrect and misleading view of Hypatia which oversimplifies her. [ This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License and uses material adapted in whole or in part from the Wikipedia article on Hypatia of Alexandria The following historical account of Hypatia was recorded by Socrates Scholasticus (c. 379-c. 450). Socrates Scholasticus was a " Father of the Church " who lived at the time of Hypatia. This is his chilling and graphic account of the death of Hypatia as told in the 15th Chapter of the seventh and last volume of his Ecclesiastical History . The Chapter's title is: Of Hypatia the Female Philosopher

    hypatia. The Lady Philosopher of Alexandria. A More Likely Truth Based on hypatiaof Alexandria, by Maria Dzielska, Harvard University Press, 1995.  
    http://pages.prodigy.net/fljustice/hypatia.html
    
    Extractions: Hypatia The Lady Philosopher of Alexandria b. 355(?) AD - d. 415 AD Picture from The Mysterious Fayum Portraits: Faces from Ancient Egypt. Read a review of this spectacular book in the research bibliography. The Legend I first came across Hypatia's story in 1980 when I attended Judy Chicago's groundbreaking feminist art exhibit "The Dinner Party." Chicago and her team selected thirty-nine subjects for an elaborate dinner party, where each "guest" (including several goddesses) was honored for her contributions to womankind with a specially designed plate and table runner. In the accompanying book, Hypatia is described as "a Roman scholar and philosopher who lived in Alexandria...she stressed the importance of goddesses and the feminine aspects of culture." The article details the pagan philosopher's death at the hands of a Christian mob. I was hooked - caught up in the romanticism and inherent drama of Hypatia's life. What I didn't realize was that many of the "facts" in this story were wrong. I embarked on a journey to learn as much as I could about this fascinating woman and found a bewildering array of fact and fiction. The primary historical record is sketchy. No letters from or writing by Hypatia exist. Socrates Scholasticus' 5th Century eccleciastical history gives an account of her death. Most of what we know comes from a the surviving letters of one of her former students, Synesius of Cyrene and later Bishop of Ptolmais.

     Extractions: ~ W.H.Auden Welcome to our website! The Hypatia Society is a group aiming to encourage multiple talents and geniuses within individuals. A modern day Renaissance movement, if you will, albiet one that hopes to encourage genius in persons of both genders and all races, nationalities and ethnicities. We have some specific and general goals; to create after school programs for gifted children in underserved areas, to create a resource library to assist our members in reaching their full potential, a mentoring program both within this society and with underserved gifted youth, personal development and leadership assistance, research development and more. We hope to lead away from the current philosophy of specilization in only one field, to the detriment of other talents and aptitudes, and also the idea that expertise and mastery can only be achieved through formal education (many of the greatest figures in history were self-taught!).
