Komen deze namen je nog niet bekend voor dan kun je beter eerst wat basis- informatie doornemen zoals het onderdeel ' de echte geschiedenis '. Anders is het zeker interressant om wat meer over deze mannen te weten te komen. Zij die immers heel wat betekent hebben voor Stonehenge en andere soortgelijke henge monumenten. John Aubrey: (1626-1697) John Aubrey was een gewone man, geen bovenintelligent wezen of verheven prinsenzoon. Nee hij werd geboren in het gehucht 'Easton Piercy' in Wiltshire. Hij volgde zijn studie in een voor ons bekende universiteitsstad, Oxford. John Aubrey, een echte engelsman in hart en haren Wiliam Stukeley, bizarre denkbeelden! William Stukeley: (1687-1765) Stukeley had dezelfde archeologische wil als Aubrey om meer van de prehistorische bouwwerken te weten te komen. Vooral de stenen cirkels in Stonehenge en Avebury trokken zijn interesse. Hij onderzocht zulke bouwwerken niet alleen op zichzelf maar legde ook links tussen de bouwwerken onderling. Zijn belangrijkste ontdekkingen deed hij op jonge leeftijd. Hij ontdekte op 22-jarige leeftijd de 'Aubrey Holes' en bweerde dat Avebury een oude tempel was. Op latere leeftijd is zijn archeolo-gische talent vaak gebruikt. Hij verrichte veel veldwerk op de locatie van Stonehen-ge en maakte er uit-

Stonehenge In Zuid-Engeland, 15 km ten noorden van Salisbury, staan constructies van reusachtige steenblokken en tot nu toe is het nog steeds een mysterie hoe die stenen daar zo zijn gekomen. Het is een henge-monument, dat wil zeggen dat het een prehistorisch monument is, bestaande uit een ovale of cirkelvormige wal met daarbinnen een gracht en 1 á 2 ingangen. De ontwikkelingen van Stonehenge Circa 3100 tot 2300 voor Christus, in de vroege steentijd, is het 1 e deel van deze bouwwerken gebouwd. In deze tijd is een ringwal (met een diameter van 100 m) met daarom heen een gracht en daarbinnen een krans van 56 kuilen gemaakt. Die kuilen worden de Aubrey holes genoemd naar de ontdekker ervan: John Aubrey. De wal en de gracht hebben een opening in het noordoosten waar een grote steen, de Heel Stone, was geplaatst. In het 2 e deel (fase 2) is o.a. de ingang verschoven, er zijn een aantal stenen bijgekomen en er is een cirkelvormig monument gebouwd met een doorsnede van 25 m in het centrum, bestaande uit bluestones. Dit zijn stenen van ca 4 ton die van grote afstand zijn aangevoerd, waarschijnlijk uit Zuid-Wales. In de 3 e fase, die van 2100 tot 2000 v. Chr. loopt zijn de grootste steenconstructies gebouwd: een cirkel bestaande uit 30 rechtop staande stenen, elk 5½ m lang en ca 26 ton zwaar, afgedekt met stenen met een lengte van 3 meter en 7 ton zwaar. De grootste steen is 8,70 m lang en 45 ton zwaar.

Quotes: Alexander, Jane. Chairman, National Endowment for the Arts (1993-1997) "When we teach a child to sing or play the flute, we teach her how to listen. When we teach her to draw, we teach her to see. When we teach a child to dance, we teach him about his body and about space, and when he acts on a stage, he learns about character and motivation. When we teach a child design , we reveal the geometry of the world. When we teach children about the folk and traditional arts and the great masterpieces of the world, we teach them to celebrate their roots and find their own place in history." Archimedes. 287-212 BC Greek mathematician, engineer, and physicist. Soldier, stand away from my diagram Supposedly spoken by Archimedes to the Roman soldier who killed him. Perhaps the best indication of what Archimedes truly loved most is his request that his tombstone include a cylinder circumscribing a sphere , accompanied by the inscription of his amazing theorem that the sphere is exactly two-thirds of the circumscribing cylinder in both surface area and volume!"

Quotations by Thomas Hobbes There is more in Mersenne than in all the universities together. Quoted in G Simmons Calculus Gems (New York 1992). To understand this for sense it is not required that a man should be a geometrician or a logician, but that he should be mad. ["This" is that the volume generated by revolving the region under 1/ x from 1 to infinity has finite volume.] Quoted in N Rose Mathematical Maxims and Minims (Raleigh N C 1988). The errors of definitions multiply themselves according as the reckoning proceeds; and lead men into absurdities, which at last they see but cannot avoid, without reckoning anew from the beginning. Quoted in J R Newman, The World of Mathematics (New York 1956). A quotation about Thomas Hobbes by John Aubrey (1626-1697) He was 40 years old before he looked on geometry; which happened accidentally. Being in a gentleman's library, Euclid's Elements lay open, and "twas the 47 El. libri I" [Pythagoras' Theorem]. He read the proposition . "By God", sayd he, "this is impossible:" So he reads the demonstration of it, which referred him back to such a proposition; which proposition he read. That referred him back to another, which he also read. Et sic deinceps , that at last he was demonstratively convinced of that trueth. This made him in love with geometry.

Mathematical Quotations A Back to MQS Home Page Forward to "B" Quotations Abel, Niels H. (1802 - 1829) If you disregard the very simplest cases, there is in all of mathematics not a single infinite series whose sum has been rigorously determined. In other words,the most important parts of mathematics stand without a foundation. In G. F. Simmons, Calculus Gems , New York: Mcgraw Hill, Inc., 1992, p. 188. [A reply to a question about how he got his expertise:] By studying the masters and not their pupils. [About Gauss' mathematical writing style] He is like the fox, who effaces his tracks in the sand with his tail. In G. F. Simmons, Calculus Gems , New York: Mcgraw Hill, Inc., 1992, p. 177. Adams, Douglas (1952 - 2001) Bistromathics itself is simply a revolutionary new way of understanding the behavior of numbers. Just as Einstein observed that space was not an absolute but depended on the observer's movement in space, and that time was not an absolute, but depended on the observer's movement in time, so it is now realized that numbers are not absolute, but depend on the observer's movement in restaurants. The first nonabsolute number is the number of people for whom the table is reserved. This will vary during the course of the first three telephone calls to the restaurant, and then bear no apparent relation to the number of people who actually turn up, or to the number of people who subsequently join them after the show/match/party/gig, or to the number of people who leave when they see who else has turned up.

Main September 06, 2002 A Cheerful Casaubon From time to time I'm going to be posting excerpts from Aubrey's Brief Lives , a set of charming biographies generally more talked about than read, at least until the republication of Oliver Lawson Dick's 1957 version by Nonpareil Books. As background for these posts, here are the opening paragraphs to Dick's life of John Aubrey (1626-1697). Not long after John Aubrey's death, a wise man warned us against treating books like members of the nobility: that is, against learning their titles and bragging afterwards of acquaintance with them. Yet this has been peculiarly Aubrey's fate; for his reputation is founded almost entirely upon hearsay and the piecemeal quotation of his work by other writers. The reason for the extraordinary neglect of this man of genius is not hard to find and the fault, it must be admitted, is entirely his own. For Aubrey's love of life was no intense, his curiosity so promiscuous and insatiable, that he proved quite incapable of completing any work he undertook. Each one was started in a most businesslike and practical fashion, but before long the original plan was always buried beneath the flood of digressions and notes, of horoscopes, letter and stories, which his restless mind seemed powerless to control. Having decided to write a life, Aubrey selected a page in one of his notebooks and jotted down as quickly as possible everything the he could remember about the character concerned: his friends, his appearance, his actions, his books and his sayings. Any facts or dates that did not occur to him on the spur of the moment were left blank, and as Aubrey was so extremely sociable that he was usually suffering from a hangover when he came to put pen to paper, the number of these omissions was often very large. In the first flush of composition, too, his mind raced so far beyond his pen that he frequently resorted to a sort of involved shorthand and made use of signs instead of words.

Winter's Tale, The About the Author English poet, dramatist, and actor, considered by many to be the greatest dramatist of all time. Some of Shakespeare's plays, such as Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet , are among the most famous literary works of the world. Shakespeare was the most popular dramatist of his age. However, his early works did not match the artistic quality of Marlowe's dramas. If he had died on the same year than Marlowe, in 1593, today he perhaps would be considered a minor poet. Shakespeare became the first to appeal and to meet with the full approval of a broad and mixed public embracing almost all levels of society. He possessed a large vocabulary for his day, having used 29,066 different words in his plays. Today the average English-speaking person uses something like 2,000 words in everyday speech. "It may be that the essential thing with Shakespeare is his ease and authority and thay you just have to accept him as he is if you are going to be able to admire him properly, in the way you accept nature, a piece of scenery for example, just as it is."

Collecting Antique Maps A Brief Introduction Geographia . From that time printed maps vividly reflect the history of the great discoveries and voyages of exploration, from Columbus to Drake and Cook to Livingstone, and the advancement in geographical knowledge, from the discovery of America to that of the source of the Nile. All known areas of the world were mapped to a greater or lesser degree depending on current knowledge and subsequently with a varying standard of accuracy. Many early mapmakers were reluctant to leave gaps where information was not known, preferring to insert supposed coastlines (many erroneous), fanciful creatures, comments or simply decorative embellishments. However, it is just this romanticism which creates the appeal and fascination that caused Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) to comment: " So geographers in Afric-maps, With savage pictures fill their gaps; Place elephants for want of towns." Collecting maps is not a new pastime, but is still relatively unplumbed. From the sixteenth century maps and atlases were an essential component of any fine library. Dr. John Dee (1527-1608 Geographer to Queen Elizabeth I) noted: "some to beautify their halls, parlours and chambers ... liketh, loveth, getteth, and useth maps, charts and geographical globes". During the following century the famous diarist John Aubrey (1626-1697) remarked on the interest of collectors who "loveth to visit booksellers shops there to lye gaping on maps". Getting Started
