Atomism general remarks Leucippos Democritus of Abdera Background Even before Zeno formulated his paradoxes, some pluralists were preparing an answer for Parmenides' monism with a justification of a plurality of substances. Others were Zeno's contemporary, but took his criticism into account. The Pythagoreans envisioned a pluralistic numerical cosmos derived and generated from a geometric unit, very much like that of Parmenides. Opposed to this conceptual pluralistic account of the world, there is that of Empedocles who combined the old Ionic materialistic accounts of the world with a new conceptual account of cosmic forces. He accepted Parmenides' denial of the conversion of reality to non-reality in the sense that he denied the absolute destruction of substance or its absolute creation from nothing. Anaxagoras' account answers Parmenides' monism by eliminating the elements altogether.

THE SOPHISTS PROTAGORAS (ca. 490-ca. 420 B.C.) Protagoras, like Democritus, came from Abdera, on the Thracian coast. An ancient story relates that he was at first a porter and that Democritus of Abdera saw him, admired his poise, and decided to instruct him; but this story's truth is doubtful. Protagoras reflected on language and developed a system of grammar. Having settled in Athens, where he taught the youth, he won the respect of Pericles, who commissioned him to frame laws for the new colony of Thurii, in Italy. At age seventy he was accused and convicted of atheism and is said to have left for Sicily and to have drowned at sea. Protagoras is primarily known for his claim that "of all things the measure is Man . . ." In the dialogues Protagoras and Theaetetus Plato takes Protagoras to mean that each person, not humanity as a whole, is the measure of all things and so attacks Protagoras' relativism. Protagoras was the first of those travelling teachers of philosophy and rhetoric who became known as "Sophists." Sophists were not as interested in metaphysical theories as they were in the skill of

As Khem was the name of ancient Egypt, it is commonly supposed that the science of Alchemy originated in the land of the Pharaohs. But actually it was born on the old continent of Atlantis. Egypt was merely the land of its rebirth. Alchemy is said to have been introduced into Egypt by Hermes Trismegistus. Who was the "Thrice-Great"? The name Hermes, like so many other famous names of history, was a generic one common to a long line of Initiates. Thoth- Hermes was one of the King-Instructors, the "Sons of the Fire" who incarnated in the Third Race to instruct infant humanity in the arts and sciences. The Egyptians always regarded Thoth-Hermes as a symbol of the Third Race. But in whichever of his characters Hermes appears, he is always credited as the first to teach the science of magic to the Egyptians. Since "Hermes" implies a Fraternity of Initiates rather than a single individual, the

Thin Film (4) I was thinking that there was a gravity of a different sort to the image of images in Lucretius. If objects far away push their thin film through the air, they increase in pressure as they travel. Thus, objects far away hit with increased force and weight. I think we often view history that way, and ignore what is recent in favor of a deeper past. Objects that are closest to us hold the least amount of pressure, create the smallest disturbance. Oliver Wendell Holmes sees these films as streaming too, traveling in waves. Nearest to us they are faint ripples, but as they build and multiply they build up not only pressure but also layers.

Eureka? by Amit Agarwal For 17 years, physicists have been searching for the top quark, a "missing" subatomic paticle whose discovery would provide strong evidence for the prevailing theory on the fundamental nature of matter and energy. Fermilab's CDF collaboration, of which the Duke high-energy physics research team forms a part, has recently acquired the first direct evidence of the top quark.

74. Democritus [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy] 4th century BCE philosopher of abdera who expanded the atomic theory of Leucippus. http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/d/democrit.htm

Democritus (460-370 BCE.) Credit cannot be given to the tale that Democritus spent his leisure hours in chemical researches after the philosopher's stone the dream of a later age; or to the story of his conversation with Hippocrates concerning Democritus's supposed madness, as based on spurious letters. Democritus has been commonly known as "The Laughing Philosopher," and it is gravely related by Seneca that he never appeared in public with out expressing his contempt of human follies while laughing. Accordingly, we find that among his fellow-citizens he had the name of "the mocker". He died at more than a hundred years of age. It is said that from then on he spent his days and nights in caverns and sepulchers, and that, in order to master his intellectual faculties, he blinded himself with burning glass. This story, however, is discredited by the writers who mention it insofar as they say he wrote books and dissected animals, neither of which could be done well without eyes. Democritus expanded the atomic theory of Leucippus. He maintained the impossibility of dividing things ad infinitum . From the difficulty of assigning a beginning of time, he argued the eternity of existing nature, of void space, and of motion. He supposed the atoms, which are originally similar, to be impenetrable and have a density proportionate to their volume. All motions are the result of active and passive affection. He drew a distinction between primary motion and its secondary effects, that is, impulse and reaction. This is the basis of the law of necessity, by which all things in nature are ruled. The worlds which we see with all their properties of immensity, resemblance, and dissimilitude result from the endless multiplicity of falling atoms. The human soul consists of globular atoms of fire, which impart movement to the body. Maintaining his atomic theory throughout, Democritus introduced the hypothesis of images or idols (

75. Anaxarchus [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy] 4th century BCE philosopher of abdera, from the school of democritus. http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/a/anaxarch.htm

Anaxarchus (4th cn. BCE.) Anaxarchus was a philosopher of Abdera, from the school of Democritus, who flourished about the 110th Olympiad. He is remembered for having lived with Alexander and enjoyed his confidence. When Alexander was torn with regret for having killed his faithful Clitus, Anaxarchus said, "kings, like the gods, could do no wrong." Anaxarchus was addicted to pleasure. It was because of this (and not because of the apathy and tranquillity of his life) that he obtained the surname of "the Fortunate." Cicero relates a story that Anaxarchus was pounded to death in an iron mortar by Nicocreon, king of Cyprus, in revenge for the advice which he gave to Alexander, to serve up the head of that prince at an entertainment.

76. The Life Of Democritus democritus. democritus (or Democrit) was a son of either Hegesistratos, Athenokritosor Damasippos born between 472 and 457 BC in abdera (or Milet). http://www.mlahanas.de/Greeks/DemocritLife.htm

Democritus Democritus (or Democrit) was a son of either Hegesistratos, Athenokritos or Damasippos born between 472 and 457 BC in Abdera (or Milet). He had 2 brothers Herodot and Damastes and a sister (her name is not known). He obtained an amount of 100 Talents () after his fathers death, something which is equivalent to a few million dollars today. Now he was able to travel around and learn. He visited almost all places up to India talking there with the so-called naked sophists or gymnosophistes (Diogenes Laertios) He had good relations with the Persian King Xerxes who visited his house during the second Greek-Persian war. Democritus considered himself like a Pentathlet who is not a master in any specific game but that what counts is the total number of points. Democritus was also a mathematician. He discovered that: The volume of a cone is one-third the volume of a cylinder having the same base and equal height. The volume of a pyramid is one-third the volume of a prism having the same base and equal height. He wrote more than 75 books about almost everything such as His travels were expensive such that all his money was spent.
