49. Olivier's Opinion #006 If we come back to Rabbi levi ben gerson, I agree with Doron that probably, likemany of us, he was fascinated by the plays of these charming entities that http://web.ccr.jussieu.fr/gmpib/oliver/opinions/Opinion006.html

About Doron Zeilberger's Opinion #36 While I am very sympathetic with Doron Zeilberger's frank and direct way of expressing his ideas and while most of the mathematics he does with his companion Shalosh B. Ekhad has a strong appeal to me, I am far to agree with it on many minor aspects of his opinions. (It is better to have read Doron Zeilberger's text before reading this. See: and for the feedback he received from various people go to As english is not my mother tongue, any comment on the spelling, grammar or style of this text is welcome. Please mail it to me Mathematician=programmer ? No, a Ph. D. in math does not warrant at all the ability to learn programming, even when one has removed those very common psychological blocks DZ refers to. There is a lot to unlearn, there is the whole social implication of a researcher in the academic system. Moreover, we all now math Ph. D. who aren't smart *at all* and especially about mathematics. Introducing this kind of public to even mathematically-minded computer macro-languages like TeX is sometimes worth Hercules' works. Part of the trouble with any academic system is that there are areas, times and circonstances were you can be dubbed "researcher" or "professor" by only being a good schoolboy, no need to be smart or creative about the subject. In fact, the mathematics researchers I know who program well had most of the time a keen interest in programming or computers before they graduated. It makes me appreciate even more the senior mathematicians who are good with these tools or who switched successfully at a late stage in their career.

50. The Hyperbolic Geometry Exhibit alHaytham's proof and Umar Khayyam's resulting criticism. Medievil scholarsVitello (Poland, 1230-1275?); levi ben gerson (South France, 1288-1344); http://www.math.ubc.ca/~robles/hyperbolic/eucl/prll/struggle.html

The Struggle And so begins a 2000 year long attempt to prove Euclid's fifth postulate is a result of the first four: Mideast: Aghanis (Byzantine, 5th Century) Simplicius (Bytantine, 6th Century) Abbas ibn Sa`id al-Jawhari (Baghdad, 9th Century) Thabit inb Qurra Al-Nayrizi (10th Century) Abu `Ali ibn Sina (980-1037) Abu `Ali Ibn al-Haytham (Egypt, 965-1041) Umar Khayyam (Nishapur) Husam al-Din al-Salar (13th Century) Nasir al-Din al-Tusi (13th Century) al-Haytham's proof and Umar Khayyam's resulting criticism. Medievil scholars: Vitello (Poland, 1230-1275?) Levi ben Gerson (South France, 1288-1344) Alfonso (Spain, 1270-1346) 16th Century: Federik Bartolacic Grisogono (Italy, 1472-1538) Christopher Clavius (Germany, 1537-1612) 17th Century: Peitro Antonio Cataldi (Italy, 1548-1626) Giovanni Alfonso Borelli (Italy, 1608-1679) Vitale Giordano (Italy, 1633-1711) John Wallis (England, 1616-1703) Up to this point all the proofs developed failed for two reasons: The authors either implicitly use assumptions equivalent to the parallel postulate, or formulated a new fifth postulate of their own, which the used with euclids first four to prove the parallel postulate. Although they held these alternate postulates to be obvious beyond critism, they were also identical to the Fifth Postulate (in the presence of the previous four).

Exodus 6 met kanttekeningen Verder sprak God tot Mozes, en zeide tot hem: Ik ben de HEERE, En Ik ben aan Abraham, Izak, en Jakob verschenen, als God de Almachtige; doch met Mijn Naam HEERE ben Ik hun niet bekend geweest. En ook heb Ik Mijn verbond met hen opgericht, dat Ik hun geven zou het land Kanaän, het land hunner vreemdelingschappen, waarin zij vreemdelingen geweest zijn. En ook heb Ik gehoord het gekerm der kinderen Israëls, die de Egyptenaars in dienstbaarheid houden, en Ik heb aan Mijn verbond gedacht. Derhalve zeg tot de kinderen Israëls: Ik ben de HEERE! en Ik zal ulieden uitleiden van onder de lasten der Egyptenaren, en Ik zal u redden uit hun dienstbaarheid, en zal u verlossen door een uitgestrekten arm, en door grote gerichten; En Ik zal ulieden tot Mijn volk aannemen, en Ik zal u tot een God zijn; en gijlieden zult bekennen, dat Ik de HEERE uw God ben, Die u uitleide van onder de lasten der Egyptenaren. En Ik zal ulieden brengen in dat land, waarover Ik Mijn hand opgeheven heb, dat Ik het aan Abraham, Izak, en Jakob geven zou; en Ik zal het ulieden geven tot een erfdeel, Ik, de HEERE!

En dit zijn de namen der zonen van Aäron: de eerstgeborene, Nadab, daarna Abihu, Eleazar, en Ithamar. Dit zijn de namen der zonen van Aäron, der priesteren, die gezalfd waren, welker hand men gevuld had, om het priesterambt te bedienen. Maar Nadab en Abihu stierven voor het aangezicht des HEEREN, als zij vreemd vuur voor het aangezicht des HEEREN in de woestijn van Sinaï brachten, en hadden geen kinderen, doch Eleazar en Ithamar bedienden het priesterambt voor het aangezicht van hun vader Aäron. En de HEERE sprak tot Mozes, zeggende: Doe den stam van Levi naderen, en stel hem voor het aangezicht van den priester Aäron, opdat zij hem dienen; En dat zij waarnemen zijn wacht, en de wacht der gehele vergadering, voor de tent der samenkomst, om den dienst des tabernakels te bedienen; En dat zij al het gereedschap van de tent der samenkomst, en de wacht der kinderen Israëls waarnemen, om den dienst des tabernakels te bedienen.

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
