Islamic philosophy: transmission into Western Europe Early translations: twelfth century Thirteenth-century translations The contribution of Jewish scholars The beginnings of Arabic scholarship 1. Early translations: twelfth century Some seventy works were translated from Arabic by Gerard of Cremona , nicknamed 'the Master' ( dictus magister ), at the cathedral of Toledo. These included Aristotle's Posterior Analytics Physics On Generation and Corruption and Meteorology I-III (see Aristotle ), as well as four short tracts on natural science by Alexander of Aphrodisias . To these originally Greek works, Gerard added four philosophical letters of al-Kindi , a letter on proof by the Ikhwan al-Safa' and al-Farabi's Kitab ihsa' al-'ulum (On the Classification of the Sciences) (see al-Farabi Also at this time, the importance of the al-Shifa' (Healing) of Avicenna (Ibn Sina) was brought to the notice of Archbishop John of Toledo by a Jewish scholar called 'Avendauth' (perhaps the same as Abraham Ibn Daud , the author of al-'Aqida al-rafi'a (The Exalted Faith) ). Portions of the text, including those on universals, physics (in part), the soul and metaphysics, were translated by Avendauth, Dominicus Gundissalinus (an archdeacon in the cathedral

Astronomy in Sefarad Yuval Ne'eman Mortimer and Raymond Sackler Institute of Advanced Studies Tel Aviv University , Israel 1. Greeks and Hebrews: two intertwining intellectual progressions In very broad lines, Western culture is the outcome of two independent intellectual progressions: Greek philosophy and science, centered on a rational understanding of the world - and Hebrew ethics, worrying about the condition of man and his interaction with other men. On the Greek side, we note that at the beginning of the first Century AD, Eratosthenes (250 BC) had already computed the diameter of the earth with an error of less than 1/2 %, Hipparchus (150 BC) had evaluated the distance to the Moon with a 1/3 % precision, Hero (100 BC) had invented the steam engine [1]. On the Jewish side, Abraham (1800 BC) had put an end to human sacrifice, Moses (1300 BC) had codified the day of rest, to be applied even to slaves and house animals, Amos (800 BC) had preached social justice and Isaiah (700 BC) had already conceived the idea of universal peace - in a world where war remained the explicit ideal "manly" activity for another thousand years [2]. Note that in this ethical voyage of discovery, Jewish society had evolved "schools" as early as 1000 BC [3], the earliest foundations of what was later to become a learning-oriented culture. In parallel, we have, of course, the Athens Academy ( ~ 500 BC). With the destruction of the Second Temple (70 AD), the Jewish cult and rites centre on learning much more than before. Judaism, as remodeled for a countryless nation by Yokhanan Ben Zakkay (Ist Century AD) became a study-oriented religion. Note that 1000 years later, in medieval Europe, all male Jews were literate, at a time when in most of Europe, only churchmen could read.

Issue 84/85, Fall 1998 ASTROLABES AND MAPS Some time during the Middle Ages people began to make measured maps designed for practical use in navigation. The oldest surviving example is the Pisan chart, now in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. It dates from the late 13th century, but there is no reason to believe that it was the first of its kind. Unlike the mappamundi, which co-existed with the portolan charts for a long time, the new maps emphasized purely geographical features with little of the historical, religious, and fabulous information so prominently displayed on the mappamundi. Among the many questions raised by the portolan charts, one of the most vexing is that of their construction. What kind of instruments were used to make their meticulously drawn coastlines? No written evidence survives from the earliest period of their existence. However, we do know that two tools, useful for making measured maps, were introduced into Europe in the Middle Ages. These were the astrolabes, which appeared in the tenth century, and the compass in the twelfth. The possible use of the compass in making the charts, which are marked by compass roses and rhumb lines, has been widely discussed, though no firm conclusions have been drawn. The use of the astrolabe has been treated very little. The next oldest dates from the 14th century, though it is possible that Western Europeans were using astrolabes of Islamic manufacture imported through Spain.

Rubrika: Znanost Filozofija Spinoza/Viri Zidovska religiozna filozofija srednjega veka (Slo) Autor: Iztok Markoja Posameznim avtorjem, ki so raziskovali vire Spinozove filozofije, pa se je posrecilo dokazati, da je le-ta vendarle povezana s srednjeveskim filozofskim misljenjem. Toda ne s srednjevesko krscansko sholastiko, temvec z zidovsko religiozno filozofijo Srednjega veka. Mimo Stare zaveze in Talmuda je Spinoza ze v zgodnji mladosti prouceval celotno zidovsko in religiozno knjizevnost. Bral je originalne spise Solomona ibn Gabirola, Abrahama ben Meir ibn Ezra, Mojzesa ben Majmona (Majmonida), Levija ben Gersona (Gresonida), Hasdaia Crescasa, Jehude Abrabenela (Leona Ebreo). Vrhu tega je Spinoza odlicno poznal tudi Kabalo. Spinozova koncepcija spoznanja, kakor jo ima v Kratki razpravi, sloni po Gebhartovi sodbi na sintezi, ki jo je iz averoisticnega pojma Intelectus agens in Platonovega nauka o idejah ustvaril Leone Ebreo. Kakor Leone Ebreo, Spinoza razlocuje dve vrsti spoznanj: racionalno ali per discorso ter intuitivno ali cognizione intuitiva. Spinoza tako govori o "resnicnem verovanju", ki sloni na razumskem sklepanju in o "jasnem in razumljivem spoznanju", ki ni nic drugega kot intuicija. Naposled Spinoza tudi o zdruzitvi cloveske duse z Bogom, kar pomeni najvecjo dobrino in najvisjo blazenost, govori v Kratki razpravi z jezikom Leona Ebrea. Gebhardt celo sklepa, da je v Etiki vpliv Dialoghi d´Amore osvezen s ponovnim branjem, zakaj sele tu srecamo sam izraz amor intellectualis Dei. Tako potemtakem lahko najdemo vir ene izmed poglavitnih Spinozinih tem v renesancnem platonizmu Leona Ebrea.

TABLAS The T hematic A nnotated B iblio-discographical L isting for A lfonsine S cholars by Sonja M. Musser in collaboration with Anthony J. Cárdenas for SPAN 501 by Dean Charles Tatum University of Arizona Fall 1998 This bibliographic project on Alfonso X, el Sabio combines two of the best published bibliographies on work relating to the monarch to date. The first is “A Decade of Alphonsine Studies: Working Notes and Bibliography” by Anthony J. Cárdenas, Jerry R. Craddock and Barbara De Marco and published in Romance Philology , Vol. XLIX, No. 2, in November 1995. The second is a discography of the recordings of the medieval king’s songs in, An Annotated Discography of Music in Spain Before 1650 nd edition, edited and compiled by Roger D. Tinnell and published by the Madison Press in 1990. The goal of this synthesis of Cárdenas bibliography and Tinnell’s discography is to combine and reorganize this information in a more user-friendly format for current and future alfoncistas. In their original formats the bibliography and discography were organized in alphabetical order by author and song title respectively. This project will organize each entry by title of alfonsine work and/or subject, sometimes placing an entry under several headings as applicable.

NEW YORK KOLLEL Meet the Author with Eugene Borowitz THE NEW JEWISH BOOKS Eugene B. Borowitz and Frances W. Schwartz, Editors Our Book of the Month March, 2000 In Search of American Jewish Culture Stephen J. Whitfield (Brandeis/New England) Have even a slight encounter with American theater and music, American literature and art, and you will notice a Semitic presence out of proportion to our small numbers. But also be aware of the strong interactive relationship between the general, secular society and our particularist one. Only by emphasizing our distinctive religious faith, more than either practice or doctrine, will our Judaism remain viable. Whitfield's thesis: We must consciously maintain our "otherness" in the face of rampant assimilation to keep American Jewish culture Jewish. This Month's Notable Books Since we are focusing on past and present cultures this month, we want to call your attention to a book about a frequently overlooked period of Jewish history.

Subject: Re: Non-Junky Junk Mail In-Reply-To: Author: Greg Kuperberg I don't see any reason to have a hostile reaction to Doron Zeilberger's opinion 36. The basic thesis - that computers are replacing mathematicians - is true in some respects and not in others. I suspect that when computers make mathematicians obselete, all human activity will be superfluous and human history will end. I don't know how far in the future this eventuality might lay, but even if it were soon, nothing we do now would matter much afterwards. One view that I do not share (and which was not mentioned by Doron) is that quantum computers will be the big turning point. I doubt it for two reasons: First, people are probably classical computers. Second, most complexity theorists believe that bounded-error quantum polynomial time (BQP) falls short of hard complexity classes such as NP and PSPACE. There was an interesting article about this in the xxx computer science archive by Fortnow and Rogers [cs.CC/9811023]. (You have to go to xxx.lanl.gov or a mirror site to see it; I apologize that there is no Front for the CS archive.) Doron's argument for his thesis is a little crazy, but it's not completely crazy. You shouldn't interpret it literally, even though Doron himself might. Although it is not very original or strongly argued, it obviously is provocative. It's like shock art. When I'm in the mood for it, I like it.

80. Page About Freemasonry, Essays: Pythagoras And Mystic Science The leading Jewish mathematician of the 14th century was Rabbi levi bengerson (RaLBaG)of Catalonia, but more commonly known in science books as Master Leo de http://web.mit.edu/dryfoo/Masonry/Essays/pythagoras.html

Dr. Daniel Farhey, Jacob Caspi Lodge, Haifa, Israel In fact, the "Ancient Mysteries' Magi" specialized in "science" as it was perceived in those days, with the considerable influence of their "specialization" in paganism. The sparse knowledge of the Magi and the surrounding society caused the secrecy and mysticism. At this period, special instructors called "Sophists" (scholars) were brought from Sicily. Opposed to the first and original Pythagoreans, the Sophists taught for pay and somehow abandoned the secrecy and mysticism. Hippocrates, a Pythagorean, was the principal combatant against the secrecy and published for the first time a book entitled "Principles". Subsequently, a very famous school was founded in Alexandria, Egypt, under Pythagorean influence. The most famous scholars were Euclid, Ptolemy, Menelaus, and Nicomachus, who revived the original Pythagorean theory. After the year A.D. 415, these theories did not continue to develop in Alexandria and the principal subject for research and study was theology, while the paganism passed away with the art of science. In the year A.D. 529, all the schools in Athens were closed according to an order of the Byzantine emperor Justinian I, thus ending one of the most brilliant periods in the development of mathematics and science. The philosophy and many theories on the Pythagorean way of life, transmitted orally by Pythagoras, were considerably influenced by the way of life of Judaism and the Bible, which was the only source explicitely prescribing the order. King Solomon lived about 400 years before Pythagoras. After the destruction of the First Temple of Jerusalem (586 B.C., before Pythagoras was born), under foreign and hostile rule, Jews gathered in regional schools. The five-pointed star (not six!) refered in Judaism "Solomon's Seal" and by the Greeks "pentagrama", was, in addition to the triangle, one of the symbols of the Pythagoreans. As known, the most ancient source of the pentagrama found by archeologists is Jewish. There is even a presumption that it was the symbol of the Jews before the six-pointed star "Shield of David".
