Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. This is a monograph titled, "Comogony and Stereometry in Posidonian Physics" by Professor John R. Mattingly, , Professor Emeritus in Classics, Hamilton College, now deceased. The essay was published in 1937 in the serial monographic publication, "Osiris - Studies on the History and Philosophy of Science, and on the History of Learning and Culture.", Volume III, Part 2. // Posidonius of Apameia (135 - 51? BC) was a an ancient Greek stoic philosopher, who was renown in his day, but is now known mostly to classicists and historians of science. Posidonius is known for his ethics, but his contributions to cosmology are perhaps even more interesting, as well as somewhat unorthodox. He thought matter was gifted with its own form and specificity, but was then further reshaped and modeled by divine action. He thought reason to be one of the main criteria for truth, even above physical perception. The universe Macrocosm and Microcosm are formed through a systematic hierarchy upon which reason acts by controlling irrational or chaotic forces. Stereometry is concerned with the measurement of solid bodies. Professor Mattingly's essay is a brilliant, and richly nuanced examination of how the balance between the intuition of spirit acting to originate the universe (cosmogony) and the sensual measurement of the physical world (stereometry) interacts within the laws of physics as they were perceived through the philosophy of Posidonius. At least that is my take on this fascinating paper. A fascinating monograph in which the genius of ancient Greek cosmology intersects with a brilliant mind of the 20th century. // SERIES : Osiris, Studies on the History and Philosophy of Science, and on the History of Learning and Culture ISSUE : Volume III, Part 2 SERIES EDITOR : George Sarton TITLE : Cosmogony and Stereometry in Posidonian Physics IMPRINT : The Saint Catherine Press PLACE : Bruges, Belgium DATE : 1937 EDITION : First Edition PROVENANCE : From the personal library of the late Professor Emeritus, John Mattingly.
