Extractions: Get a Search Eine For Your Site TRANSLATE this page Porphyry Malchus of Tyre, Phoenicia, (223 - 309 AD), the mathematician Porphyry's father was called Malkhos or Malchus, which means 'king'. Both Porphyry's parents were Phoenician and he would only get the nickname Porphyry later in his life as we shall explain below. Porphyry was named after his father so for many years he was known as Malchus. As a young man Porphyry tried to gain as broad a knowledge as he possibly could by studying many languages and religions. At that time Athens was the main centre for learning, so it was natural that someone with a thirst for knowledge as Porphyry had should travel there to continue his studies. In Athens Porphyry became a student of Longinus who [8]:- ... was a 'living library and walking museum' and the academic's critical attention to detail, clarity of style and erudition left their permanent mark on the keen student.

Extractions: PHIL252 Medieval Philosophy R.J. Kilcullen To follow this lecture you will need either the Readings book, or Peter Abelard's Ethics , tr. D.E. Luscombe (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1971), and Abelard's "Glosses on Porphyry", in A. Hyman and J.J. Walsh (eds.), Philosophy in the Middle Ages (Indianapolis: Hackett), p. 169 ff. In twelfth-century Europe schools flourished in many centres. There were schools in monasteries and cathedrals, primarily for the education of monks and priests but often open also to laymen. In Italian towns, especially, there were lay schools teaching law and commercial skills to fee-paying students. In France, especially, also in England and other countries, there were schools for fee-paying students of the liberal arts. The traditional list of the liberal arts included seven: grammar, logic and rhetoric (the "trivium"), and arithmetic, geometry, astronomy and music (the "quadrivium"): most of the schools we're talking about taught the trivium, grammar, logic and rhetoric. These three disciplines in one way or other taught language skills; they were sometimes called the artes sermocinales . Students who had completed these "trivial" studies sometimes moved on to theology, or sometimes set up as teachers themselves of grammar, logic and rhetoric. Some students travelled from country to country looking for a good school, and sometimes made their living for a while by teaching before becoming students again.
Porphyry - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia
porphyry. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. porphyry deposits are formed when a column of rising magma is cooled in two stages.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porphyry

Extractions: Other languages: Nederlands Deutsch From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Porphyry is a very hard red, green or purple igneous rock consisting of large-grained crystals , such as feldspar or quartz , dispersed in a fine-grained feldspathic matrix. Porphyry deposits are formed when a column of rising magma is cooled in two stages. In the first stage, the magma is cooled slowly by contact with overlying rocks, creating the large crystal grains, with a diameter of 2 mm or more. In the final stage, the magma is cooled rapidly as it erupts from a volcano , creating small grains that are usually invisible to the unaided eye. The cooling also leads to a separation of dissolved metals into distinct zones. This process is one of the main reasons for the existence of rich, localised metal ore deposits such as those of gold copper molybdenum lead ... zinc and tungsten In the ancient world, porphyry was quarried only in Egypt and was reserved for the use of the Pharaoh . In Byzance the childbirth's room of the royal family was called the purple Louis XIV King of France had the largest collection by acquiring the Borghèse collection.

Extractions: Neo-Platonism Neo-Platonism is a modern term used to designate the period of Platonic philosophy beginning with the work of Plotinus and ending with the closing of the Platonic Academy by the Emperor Justinian in 529 CE. This brand of Platonism, which is often described as 'mystical' or religious in nature, developed outside the mainstream of Academic Platonism. The origins of Neo-Platonism can be traced back to the era of Hellenistic syncretism which spawned such movements and schools of thought as Gnosticism and the Hermetic tradition. A major factor in this syncretism, and one which had an immense influence on the development of Platonic thought, was the introduction of the Jewish Scriptures into Greek intellectual circles via the translation known as the Septuagint . The encounter between the creation narrative of Genesis and the cosmology of Plato's Timaeus set in motion a long tradition of cosmological theorizing that finally culminated in the grand schema of Plotinus' Enneads . Plotinus' two major successors, Porphyry and Iamblichus, each developed, in their own way, certain isolated aspects of Plotinus' thought, but neither of them developed a rigorous philosophy to match that of their master. It was Proclus who, shortly before the closing of the Academy, bequeathed a systematic Platonic philosophy upon the world that in certain ways approached the sophistication of Plotinus. Finally, in the work of the so-called Pseudo-Dionysius, we find a grand synthesis of Platonic philosophy and Christian theology that was to exercise an immense influence on mediaeval mysticism and Renaissance Humanism.

Porphyry's Against The Christians: The Literary Remains By R. Joseph Hoffman
A Sunshine for Women s Book Summary Read excerpts from this attempted reconstruction of porphyry s _Against the Chrisitans_. Sunshine s
http://www.pinn.net/~sunshine/book-sum/porphyry.html

Extractions: Oxford University Press 1994 Fifteen volumes long, Against the Christians was written by the Roman pagan Porphyry circa 280 and was an educated man's studied attack on Christian theology. An exceedingly powerful and successful work, it and commentaries on it were condemned by the imperial church in 448 and burned. Only remnants which were contained in books that were primarily about other matters have survived until the present. As you will see, Porphyry used a literal interpretation of the Bible, a scathing wit, and an attack on Christian's intelligence, integrity, and morals (piety, loyalty to the state, and character) to undermine the new, up-start religion, Christianity. This book is divided into 2 parts: part one contains translations of Porphyry's writings while part two contains Hoffman's analysis of Porphyry's writings. 1) Referring to Mark 16:18, Porphyry writes: "In another passage Jesus says: "These signs shall witness to those who believe: they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. And if they drink any deadly drug, it will hurt them in no way." Well then: the proper thing to do would be to use this process as a test for those aspiring to be priests, bishops or church officers. A deadly drug should be put in front of them and [only] those who survive drinking it should be elevated in the ranks [of the church].

Extractions: ALINK="#669999" BACKGROUND="marble.jpg"> Died c. 594. Saint Agricola was said to have been bishop of Nevers, France, from 570 to his death in 594 (Benedictines). Born c. 250; died 326-328. Named bishop of Alexandria in 313 to succeed Saint Achillas , Saint Alexander is famed chiefly for his opposition to the Arian heresy, which claimed the Jesus was not truly God, that the Son was a creature, and that there was a time when the Son did not exist. Alexander is also known for his apostolic doctrine and life, one of the great accomplishments of which was his training of a young deacon name Athanasius , who was later to be celebrated throughout the whole Christian world. Alexander was gentle with the Arians but he was determined. Many accused him of compromising the position of the Church by the former attitude, many others said he was an impetuous man because of the latter position. He nevertheless must be considered a champion of orthodox Catholic teaching and credited with great pastoral zeal for the kindly, fatherly expostulation he addressed to Arius for a long period before excommunicating him at a meeting of his clergy about 321. The excommunication was confirmed at a local synod in Alexandria. His circular epistle on the Arian heresy has survived and is an important part of the ecclesiastical literature of this period.

Extractions: Porphyry Copper Deposits Porphyry copper deposits provide more than 50% of the worlds copper from over 100 producing mines. Their close relatives the porphyry moly deposits produce 70% of the world's moly. Both deposit types will be discussed separately, but they share many characteristics and are formed in somewhat similar manners. Distribution The Figure shows that most porphyry copper deposits are of Mesozoic to Cenozoic age and occur in association with volcanic mountain chains at or near destructive plate margins. The exceptions are a few Paleozoic deposits in the U.S.S.R and the United States which may themselves be related to Paleozoic plate margins. The largest concentration of porphyry copper deposits in the world is in the southwestern U.S. To date 88 deposits have been identified with most having formed 58-72 MY ago. Form Typical porphyry copper deposits are cylindrical, stock-like composite masses having elongate outcrops 1.5 x 2 km in diameter with an outer shell of medium to coarse grained equigranular rock and a core of similar composition that is porphyritic. Petrology of the Host Rocks The most common ore hosts are felsic plutonic rocks ranging in composition from quartz monzonite to granodiorite. However, a second clustering of deposits occurs in rocks of dioritic to syenitic composition.
Porphyry Moly And Tin Deposits
porphyry Moly and Tin Deposits. The nomenclature is confusing since one type is termed simply porphyry moly while the second type is the Climax type.
http://geology.csupomona.edu/drjessey/class/GSC433/Moly.htm

Extractions: Porphyry Moly and Tin Deposits In addition to copper there are other porphyly related types of mineralization, most notably molybdenum and tin. While each of the three types of porphyry deposits contain appreciable quantities of the other elements, they are nonetheless geologically distinct enough to constitute end members of the porphyry spectrum. Originally it was thought that all moly deposits belong to a single group. It is now accepted that there are two subtypes. The nomenclature is confusing since one type is termed simply porphyry moly while the second type is the Climax type. Porphyry Moly Subtype These deposits are associated with I-type granitic intrusives of granodiorite to quartz monzonite composition. As such they represent slightly more felsic differentiates of I-type porphyry copper deposits which are associated with diorites. The only ore mineral is molybdenite, occuring as veinlets and disseminations. The grade of the deposits is characteristically low (0.1-0.2% MoS Alteration is inconspicuous, but widespread potassic alteration may be present. Since the rock is initially high in potassium it would be very difficult to detect the potassic alteration. Some silicification immediately adjacent to moly veinlets has also been noted. Ore bodies are sheet-like to tabular. Deposits range in age from 30-80 MY and occur in association with Mesozoic to recent subduction zones, particularly those with steep angles. No simple genetic model seems to fit all of the deposits in this subgroup. Clearly they are related to subduction and evidence from fluid inclusions and isotopes favors a genesis similar if not identical to the diorite type porphyry copper deposits. An unanswered question is the relationship of the moly deposits to the copper deposits. Quartz Hill in Alaska lies less than 50 km from an active trench leading some geologists to suggest that porphyry moly deposits form at shallower depths nearer the trench than do porphyry copper deposits. However, in the Andes where both moly and copper deposits have been extensively mapped the moly deposits lie in a belt to the east of the copper deposits and farther from the trench. Unfortunately, age differences between the copper and moly belts as well as changes in the angle of subduction complicate the picture in the Andes.
