Empedocles (Check out the full-size version of this picture) Empedocles, wizard of TinyTIM is at your service. Emp is a "Paratwa" (from Christopher Hinz' Liege-Killer series, for those who must know), and so is basically one mind who happens to have two bodies (sorta like most people have two hands). Empedocles' bodies (or "tways") are male and female respectively (Gillian and Catharine, when considered separately) and so Emp's gender depends mostly on state of mind at the time. So sometimes Empedocles is male and sometimes female; but always looks the same and is as friendly as ever. Emp's most famous construction is Empedocles' House of Ill-Repute , the best little whorehouse in TIM, where the customer often comes first. Stop by and pass the time, bring some friends! Being a wizard, Emp is there to help you out; don't hesitate to page if you need help or a few extra pennies. Emp's also responsible for putting together all these WWW pages, so send comments, questions, and offers of eternal servitude straight to the Paratwa-to-blame. Back to TIM home page Play TinyTIM!

House of Ill-Repute This is a nicely-constructed little House in Urban TIM , constructed by Empedocles . To get there from the TinyTIM Nexus, go "interplace", "city", "north", "east", "east", "east", and "north", or else just @teleport to #38480 and then go up. The House has all sorts of fun rooms, with fun MUSH-coding to appeal to a variety of tastes. Empedocles tried to make the House appeal to a wide range of tastes. If there's something that offends you in it, stay out of that room. Here are a few of the features: Cozy Room A lovely foyer for the House. Sit in the couch, but don't forget to stand up before trying to leave. You may need to visit the bathrooms there; look at the graffiti. Please Brutality Rooms Commands here are law for other people! Be careful what you ask people to do, they have to obey. Other rooms off the main one have a similar feature, except that only members of one sex or the other can command there. Dark Room Pitch black; you can't tell who's doing things, you can just hear and feel someone . Bring friends. Bondage Room Real, working MUSH-coded bondage frame. The "bondee" can see and hear what's done in the room, but can react only in controlled ways. An interesting experiment in the interaction of role-playing and coding, no matter your preference.

Empedocles was a citizen of Acragas in Sicily during the 5th century BC. He has played an important part in the history of philosophy. During his lifetime he was known for the strength of his democratic convictions. In particular, it is claimed that he broke up the assembly of the Thousand - perhaps some oligarchical association or club. It may have been for this that he was offered a kingship, which Aristotle tells us he refused. There was, however, another side to his character. There was something of a 'medicine man' about Empedocles and he even claimed to be a god. Empedocles was a preacher of the new religion which sought to secure release from

Home Antique Features ABE ... Email Books By Netsifters Fragments of Empedocles By William Ellery Leonard 8vo (8 1/2 ins.) Tan paper boards with a maroon spine. The title on the spine is gilded; printed in blue ink on the front cover. Published by The Open Court Publishing Company, Chicago,1908. The preface is dated Madison, Wisconsin, May 14, 1907. There are 92 pages including a bibliography and notes. From the introduction: "Of the many works, imputed to (the philospoher and poet) Empedocles by antiquity, presumably only two are genuine, the poems 'On Nature' and the 'Purifications'; and of these we possess but the fragments preseved in the citations oif philosopher and doxographer from Aristotle to Simplicius, which, though a small part of the whole, are much more numerous and comprehensive than those of either Xenophanes or Parmenides. It is impossible to determine when the poems were lost: they were read doubtless by Lucretius and Cicero, possibly as late as the sixth century by Simplicius, who at least quotes from the 'On Nature' at length." From the 'Purifications': For since, O Muse undying, thou couldst deign

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.

Tom Kuhn / Karen Leeder (eds) Empedocles' Shoe Empedocles' Shoe by Tom Kuhn / Karen Leeder (eds) Essays on Brecht's poetry Tom Kuhn and Karen Leeder (ed) A key critical work bringing relevance to Brecht's poetry in the 21st century Brecht is increasingly recognised as one of the most important lyric voices of the 20th century. Alongside Rilke he is honoured as Germany's greatest modern poet. Yet his poetry is relatively little known in the English speaking world. This title takes its cue from an allegorical poem about the artist's legacy and looks at how poets and translators might read Brecht today. The volume arises from a seminar held at Oxford University in 1998 to mark the centenary of Brecht's birth and includes seminal contributions from experts. It sheds new light on individual poems as well as giving an overview of Brecht's poetry from the earliest days to the GDR years. There are also Brecht poems in parallel translation as well as translations by major British poets such as Tom Paulin, Seamus Heaney, Jamie McKendrick, Michael Morley, Derek Mahon, and David Constantine.

77. Plato with Platonism in later antiquity. Plato s cosmology derives from a mathematical discover by empedocles. He found that there are http://zebu.uoregon.edu/~js/glossary/plato.html

Plato, Roman herm probably copied from a Greek original, 4th century BC. In the Staatliche Museen, Berlin. Plato Plato was born, the son of Ariston and Perictione, in Athens, or perhaps in Aegina, in about 428 BC, the year after the death of the great statesman Pericles. His family, on both sides, was among the most distinguished in Athens. Ariston is said to have claimed descent from the god Poseidon through Codrus, the last king of Athens; on the mother's side, the family was related to the early Greek lawmaker Solon. Nothing is known about Plato's father's death. It is assumed that he died when Plato was a boy. Perictione apparently married as her second husband her uncle Pyrilampes, a prominent supporter of Pericles; and Plato was probably brought up chiefly in his house. Critias and Charmides, leaders among the extremists of the oligarchic terror of 404, were, respectively, cousin and brother of Perictione; both were friends of Socrates, and through them Plato must have known the philosopher from boyhood. The most important formative influence to which the young Plato was exposed was Socrates. It does not appear, however, that Plato belonged as a "disciple" to the circle of Socrates' intimates. The Seventh Letter speaks of Socrates not as a "master" but as an older "friend," for whose character Plato had a profound respect; and he has recorded his own absence (through indisposition) from the death scene of the Phaedo. It may well be that his own vocation to philosophy dawned on him only afterward, as he reflected on the treatment of Socrates by the democratic leaders. Plato owed to Socrates his commitment to philosophy, his rational method, and his concern for ethical questions. Among other philosophical influences the most significant were those of Heracleitus and his followers, who disparaged the phenomenal world as an arena of constant change and flux, and of the Pythagoreans, with whose metaphysical and mystical notions Plato had great sympathy.

78. Review Of "Empedocles" The XFiles, v. 2.0. by Sarah Stegall. Series The X-Files Episode empedocles Writer Greg Walker Director Barry K. Thomas Airdate 22 April 2001. http://www.munchkyn.com/xf-rvws/empedocles.html

The X-Files, v. 2.0 by Sarah Stegall Series: The X-Files Episode: Empedocles Writer: Greg Walker Director: Barry K. Thomas Airdate: 22 April 2001 "I saw Elvis once in a potato chip." Fox Mulder Being dead has done wonders for Fox Mulder. He's funny, he's feisty, he has that barely-suppressed grin hovering around his mouth, and he's sexy as hell. The guy who was dragging through the seventh season of the X-Files has returned from the void with a spring in his step and fire in his eye. I wish he could stay longer. Our evening begins with a layoff to give any manager nightmares; Mr. Milquetoast gets fired, leaves in shock, witnesses an auto accident that frees some evil being to possess him, and then walks back in to introduce his former boss to a new intrepretation of "termination". The New Orleans PD calls in FBI Agent and top-notch profiler Monica Reyes (Annabeth Gish) to contribute her expertise in Satanism and pop culture; she immediately diagnoses a severe case of Marilyn Manson and calls up Agent Mulder for help. Unfortunately, Mulder has just taken Scully to the hospital emergency room, and is playing circle-and-hiss games with his opposite number, John Doggett. Reyes refuses to let either of them be distracted, and guides their focus back to the case despite their preoccupation with their pissing contest. No wonder Scully likes her. It's just as well that this particular X-File is not all that fresh. We've already seen the enraged employee scenario, and X-Files involving demonic possession are a glut on the market, but the focus of the episode is not really on the trials of Jeb Dukes, Disgruntled Worker At Large. Viewers will probably be spending more time savoring the heightened dynamics of the meeting between Agent Doggett and Agent Mulder, comparing the approaches of Agent Reyes and Agent Scully, and even dissecting the cross-currents between Doggett/Scully and Mulder/Reyes. All we needed for a compleat X-Files Smack-Down was Skinner versus Kersh.

THE GREEK ELEMENTS The four classical elements were independently proposed by early Presocratic philosophers: water (Thales), air (Anaximenes), earth (Xenophanes), and fire (Heraclitus). Empedocles proposed that they all existed together in fixed quantities from the beginning. Plato later conceived of them as consisting of atoms with the geometrical shapes of four of the five regular geometrical solids that had been discovered by the Pythagoreans but described by Plato (in the Timaeus We now call these the Platonic Solids . Their surfaces consist entirely of regular triangles (3, the tetrahedron; 8, the octahedron; and 20, the icosahedron), squares (6, the cube), and pentagons (12, the dodecahedron). These are, of course, not the true shapes of atoms; but it turns out that they are some of the true shapes of packed atoms and molecules, namely crystals : The mineral salt (halite, NaCl) occurs in cubic crystals; fluorite (calcium floride, CaF ) in octahedrons; and pyrite ("Fool's Gold," iron sulfide, FeS ) in dodecahedrons [ Empedocles Fire Air Water Plato: Platonic Solids with Triangles Aristotle Empedocles Earth Plato: Platonic Solid with Squares Aristotle [Note: the white text on black background appears as a link.

80. Empedocles empedocles of Acragas. 495435 BC. empedocles elements. empedocles proposed that there are four universal elements; air, fire, earth, and water. http://www.personality-project.org/perproj/others/heineman/emped.htm

Empedocles of Acragas 495-435 B.C. Empedocles introduced new physical, chemical, and biological insights to explain the nature of the universe through interaction of two governing principles, Love and Strife, on four primary elements. Empedocles proposed that there are four universal elements; air, fire, earth, and water. He argues that the quality of matter depends exclusively on the ratio of elements. Empedocles asserted that life was the consequence of an evolutionary process. He believed that Love agglomerated the four elements into the various bodily parts. These stray limbs rotated free until Love further unified them into bodily masses. Empedocles argued that some of these bodily forms were better suited for survival than others, resulting in the disappearance of monstrous beings and the evolution of modern life.
