Español History Gardening Resources ... Activities Extract from Plato's Timaeus and Critias This extract from the work of Plato (circa 427 - 347 BC) is the first appearance in classical literature of the Atlantis myth. It is supposed to be part of a story told by Plato's great grandfather (Critias), who heard it from his great-grandfather (Dropides), who heard it from an Athenian traveller (Solon). The narrator is an Egyptian priest talking to Solon. It is supposed to describe a historical war between the ancient Athenians and the legendary Atlantis. 'Our records show how your city checked a great power which arrogantly advanced from its base in the Atlantic Ocean to attack the cities of Europe and Asia. For in those days the Atlantic was navigable. At a later time there were earthquakes and floods of extraordinary violence, and in a single dreadful day and night all your fighting men were swallowed up by the earth, and the island of Atlantis was similarly swallowed up by the sea and vanished; this is why the sea in that area is to this day impassable to navigation, which is hindered by mud just below the surface, the remains of the sunken island' Translation by Sir Desmond Lee, first published 1965, Penguin Classics. Although Plato describes Atlantis as an island in the Atlantic Ocean, and some Canarian writers have associated Atlantis with the Canaries, it is now generally believed that the Atlantis myth is a memory of Minoan Crete, a civilisation which was overwhelmed by the volcanic explosion of the Mediterranean island of Santorini in the fifteenth century BC.

Seeds of Discernment Hesiod (Circa 700 BC) "That man is all-best who himself works out every problem and solves it, seeing what will be best late and in the end. That man, too, is admirable who follows one who speaks well. He who cannot see the truth for himself, nor, hearing it from others, store it away in his mind, that man is utterly useless" ( the Works and Days, 293 - 297, translation by Lattimore). Isocrates (436 - 338 BC): " I hold that man to be wise who is able by his powers of conjecture to arrive generally at the best course, and I hold that man to be a philosopher who occupies himself with the studies from which he will most quickly gain that kind of insight" (Antidosis, 271, translation by Norlin). See also Purposes of Education Plato ( 427 - 347 BC): See Purposes of Education Aristotle (384 - 322 BC): See Purposes of Education Cicero (106 - 43 BC): "In every area, the capacity to do what is appropriate is a matter of art and natural ability, but to know what is appropriate at each time is a matter of intelligence." (De Oratore, III, 212, translation by May and Wisse). Plutarch ( 46-119 CE) : "For through philosophy and in company with philosophy it is possible to attain knowledge of what is honourable and what is shameful, what is just and what is unjust, what, in brief, is to be chosen and what is to be avoided." (The Education of Children, 10, translation by Babbit).

Leroy Robert "Satchel" Paige "Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it." Thomas Paine (1737-1809), author, political activist "No extraordinary power should be lodged in any one individual." Thomas Paine "I'm not going to limit myself just because people won't accept the fact that I can do something else." Dolly Parton I'm not offended by all the dumb-blonde jokes, because I know I'm not dumb. And I also know that I'm not blonde. Dolly Parton "The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain." Dolly Parton "Force may make hypocrites but it can never make converts." William Penn Champion of liberty, founded Pennsylvania. "I am ignorant of the Government's reasons, but I disapprove of them." James C. Percy (citing an English Member of Parliament during a heated parliamentary debate circa 1910) "An economist is an expert who will know tomorrow why the things he predicted yesterday didn't happen today."

Fresco, Vatican, Stanza della Signurata, the Pope's Private Library We now move forward in time about 150 years, still staying in Greece, from Pythagoras to Plato, himself a Pythagorean. In our last unit we studied some polygons, and I said that one of these, the triangle, was thought by Plato to be the building block of the universe. He presented that idea and others about creation, such as the universe being created to resemble a geometric progression, in one of his books, the Timaeus In the Timaeus , we'll see how Plato describes how triangles make up five solids, now called the Platonic Solids , and how these solids make up the four elements and heaven. We'll look at regular polyhedra in general, and see why only five are possible.
