Book Synopsis Logic and Logos by : William S. Hatcher
Download or read book Logic and Logos written by William S. Hatcher and published by George Ronald Pub Limited. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late Dr. William Hatcher was renowned both as an accomplished mathematician, logician and philosopher, and as one of the world?s foremost Bahá?í scholars. To those who knew him, he was also refreshingly approachable, supportive, honest and engaging. In this small but richly insightful volume, modern mathematics and logic meet religion and philosophy in a new and stimulating way. The five essays are entitled: "Platonism and Pragmatism", "Myths, Models and Mysticism", "From Metaphysics to Logic", "A Logical Solution to the Problem of Evil", and "Science and the Bahá?í Faith" With characteristic originality, Dr. Hatcher explores the interface between these disciplines now approaching each other after centuries of mutual mistrust. These valuable intellectual contributions assist the reader to bring into closer harmony the two ultimate realms expressive of essential human nature - namely that of science and of religion.

Download or read book The Art of Rhetoric written by Aristotle and published by Arcturus Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-16 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Moral character, so to say, constitutes the most effective means of proof.' In ancient Greece, rhetoric was at the centre of public life. Many writers attempted to provide manuals to help improve debating skills, but it was not until Aristotle produced The Art of Rhetoric in the 4th century bc that the subject had a true masterpiece. As he considered the role of emotion, reason, and morality in speech, Aristotle created essential guidelines for argument and prose style that would influence writers for more than two millennia. Brilliantly explained and carefully reasoned, The Art of Rhetoric remains as relevant today as it was in the assemblies of ancient Athens.
Book Synopsis The Logos of Heraclitus by : Eva Brann
Download or read book The Logos of Heraclitus written by Eva Brann and published by Paul Dry Books. This book was released on with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In this extraordinary meditation, Eva Brann takes us to the fierce core of Heraclitus's vision and shows us the music of his language. The thought and beautiful prose in The Logos of Heraclitus are a delight.”—Barry Mazur, Harvard University “An engaged solitary, an inward-turned observer of the world, inventor of the first of philosophical genres, the thought-compacted aphorism,” “teasingly obscure in reputation, but hard-hittingly clear in fact,” “now tersely mordant, now generously humane.” Thus Eva Brann introduces Heraclitus—in her view, the West’s first philosopher. The collected work of Heraclitus comprises 131 passages. Eva Brann sets out to understand Heraclitus as he is found in these passages and particularly in his key word, Logos, the order that is the cosmos. “Whoever is captivated by the revelatory riddlings and brilliant obscurities of what remains of Heraclitus has to begin anew—accepting help, to be sure, from previous readings—in a spirit of receptivity and reserve. But essentially everyone must pester the supposed obscurantist until he opens up. Heraclitus is no less and no more pregnantly dark than an oracle…The upshot is that no interpretation has prevailed; every question is wide open.”
Book Synopsis Theories of the Logos by : Ermanno Bencivenga
Download or read book Theories of the Logos written by Ermanno Bencivenga and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-10 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers insight into the nature of meaningful discourse. It presents an argument of great intellectual scope written by an author with more than four decades of experience. Readers will gain a deeper understanding into three theories of the logos: analytic, dialectical, and oceanic. The author first introduces and contrasts these three theories. He then assesses them with respect to their basic parameters: necessity, truth, negation, infinity, as well as their use in mathematics. Analytic Aristotelian logic has traditionally claimed uniqueness, most recently in its Fregean and post-Fregean variants. Dialectical logic was first proposed by Hegel. The account presented here cuts through the dense, often incomprehensible Hegelian text. Oceanic logic was never identified as such, but the author gives numerous examples of its use from the history of philosophy. The final chapter addresses the plurality of the three theories and of how we should deal with it. The author first worked in analytic logic in the 1970s and 1980s, first researched dialectical logic in the 1990s, and discovered oceanic logic in the 2000s. This book represents the culmination of reflections that have lasted an entire scholarly career.
Download or read book Hail Logos written by Prasad Sundararajan and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-08-15 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can a Logo influence the destiny of the institution, organization, ideology, etc represented by it? The answer is both Yes and No. Logos are designed to symbolically represent entities. By that very symbolic representation, the Logos can be negative, neutral, or positive in its scale of influence. It depends upon the symbolic and graphological imports that constitute the Logo. The Chinese I-Ching and various methods of prediction and progression provide the grounding for such an analytic conclusion. Case studies revealed evidences of linkages of Logos with the course of events of the represented entities. In fact, the very mind contains all knowing in the form of logos. Every Logo involves the three core of 'design', 'setting', and 'process' - as in every item, event, entity, and phenomenon in the universe. The book 'Hail Logos' will provide clues about certain core orbits of the very existence.

Book Synopsis Introductory Logic Student Tex by : 5th Edition
Download or read book Introductory Logic Student Tex written by 5th Edition and published by . This book was released on 2014-07-30 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studying formal logic can be intimidating without the right help, but knowing how to think logically isn't just for "experts." Logic should be your secret weapon. It's the tool for learning how to use other tools. It's the bones that give a clenched fist its structure (and knuckles). With that in mind, we have painstakingly designed Introductory Logic for everyday students, teachers, and parents who've never tackled syllogisms or fallacies before, but who know just how important learning logic is. In Introductory Logic, you'll get the benefit of James B. Nance's twenty years of teaching experience as you learn the fundamentals you need to think well wherever you are, including: How to properly define terms for maximum precision and accuracy -- and thus win the debate, How to form and interpret statements, the building blocks of logical thought, How to compose valid syllogisms, and -- just as importantly -- expose the invalid fakes using counterexamples, How to analyze arguments in norm
Book Synopsis The Tragedy of Reason by : David Roochnik
Download or read book The Tragedy of Reason written by David Roochnik and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-24 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1991. This book attempts to defend a conception of reason—or to use the Greek word "logos"—that I contend can be extracted from the dialogues of Plato. The very notion of defending Plato may seem strange. Why would a philosopher enshrined for centuries as "classic" need a defense? A defense against whom and what charge? What does it mean to defend an author so long dead? Can he somehow be revived? In other words, what significance can a defense of Plato possibly attain for a contemporary audience?

Download or read book Logos written by John Neeleman and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Logos is a bildungsroman about the anonymous author of the original Gospel, set amid the kaleidoscopic mingling of ancient cultures. In A.D. 66, Jacob is one of Jerusalem's privileged Greco-Roman Jews. When Roman soldiers murder his parents and his beloved sister disappears in a pogrom led by the Roman procurator, he joins Israel's rebellion against Rome. The rebellion he helps to foment leads to more tragedy-personal and, ultimately, cosmic: Jacob's wife and son perish in Rome's siege of Jerusalem, and the Romans destroy Jerusalem and the Temple, and finally extinguish Israel at Masada. Jacob wanders, and in Rome, he joins other dissidents-plotting vengeance not by arms, but by the power of an idea. Paul of Tarsus, Josephus, the keepers of the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the historical Jesus himself each play a role in Jacob's tumultuous fortunes, but the women who have loved him compel the transforming and subversive climax.
Book Synopsis The Logos of the Living World by : Louise Westling
Download or read book The Logos of the Living World written by Louise Westling and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today we urgently need to reevaluate the human place in the world in relation to other animals. This book puts Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy into dialogue with literature, evolutionary biology, and animal studies. In a radical departure from most critical animal studies, it argues for evolutionary continuity between human cultural and linguistic behaviors and the semiotic activities of other animals. In his late work, Derrida complained of philosophers who denied that animals possessed such faculties, but he never investigated the wealth of scientific studies of actual animal behavior. Most animal studies theorists still fail to do this. Yet more than fifty years ago, Merleau-Ponty carefully examined the philosophical consequences of scientific animal studies, with profound implications for human language and culture. For him, “animality is the logos of the sensible world: an incorporated meaning.” Human being is inseparable from animality. This book differs from other studies of Merleau-Ponty by emphasizing his lifelong attention to science. It shows how his attention to evolutionary biology and ethology anticipated recent studies of animal cognition, culture, and communication.

Book Synopsis Heraclitus Seminar by : Martin Heidegger
Download or read book Heraclitus Seminar written by Martin Heidegger and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1966-67 Martin Heidegger and Eugen Fink conducted an extraordinary seminar on the fragments of Heraclitus. Heraclitus Seminar records those conversations, documenting the imaginative and experimental character of the multiplicity of interpretations offered and providing an invaluable portrait of Heidegger involved in active discussion and explication. Heidegger's remarks in this seminar illuminate his interpretations not only of pre-Socratic philosophy, but also of figures such as Hegel and Holderllin. At the same time, Heidegger clarifies many late developments in his own understanding of truth, Being, and understanding. Heidegger and Fink, both deeply rooted in the Freiburg phenomenological tradition, offer two competing approaches to the phenomenological reading of the ancient text-a kind of reading that, as Fink says, is "not so much concerned with the philological problematic ... as with advancing into the matter itself, that is, toward the matter that must have stood before Heraclitus's spiritual view."
Download or read book Logos written by Steve Madison and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wouldn't you want a religion that every logician, mathematician, philosopher, and scientist on earth could embrace, a religion fully consistent with all the points made by Kurt Gödel when he listed the 14 key religious principles he accepted? That religion already exists. It's called ontological mathematics, predicated on the principle of sufficient reason and Occam's razor, and constitutes an a priori, rationalist, analytic, deductive religion, metaphysics and physics. Mathematics explains all. Nobel laureate Paul Dirac said, "God is a mathematician of a very high order and He used advanced mathematics in constructing the universe." In fact, God simply is mathematics! God is not a non-mathematical Being who sometimes does mathematics. God is a mathematical Being who does nothing but mathematics, hence IS nothing but mathematics. God is one united mathematical Mind at zero entropy, and countless competing, autonomous mathematical minds at non-zero entropy. It is this capacity of God to be both one and many, united and divided, non-entropic and entropic, cooperative and competitive, that gives our reality the characteristics it has. Galileo said, "Nature is written in that great book which ever is before our eyes – I mean the universe – but we cannot understand it if we do not first learn the language and grasp the symbols in which it is written. The book is written in mathematical language, and the symbols are triangles, circles and other geometrical figures, without whose help it is impossible to comprehend a single word of it; without which one wanders in vain through a dark labyrinth." Nature is written in the God language of mathematics because God is mathematics. Bertrand Russell said, "Mathematics takes us still further from what is human, into the region of absolute necessity, to which not only the world, but every possible world, must conform." God must conform to mathematics too. Therefore, God is mathematics. Religion is true. Thanks to mathematics. The time has come - for a universal rational and logical Logos religion, which at last gets rid of faith, mysticism, superstition, revelation and Mythos. We don't need priests, prophets, gurus and messiahs. We need geniuses. We need the world's top logicians and rationalists. We need the very best mathematicians, calculating the answer to the Ultimate Question of life, the universe, and everything.
