| | Plato's father died when Plato was a young child; his mother, unable to support Plato, his two older brothers Adeimantus and Glaucon, and his young sister Potone on her own, remarried to Pyrilampes, an associate of the statesman Pericles. | | | In 387, at the age of forty, Plato returned to Athens and founded the Academy, often described as the first European university, which continued to teach its comprehensive curriculum of astronomy, biology, mathematics, political theory, and philosophy until it was ordered closed in 529 AD by Emperor Justinian, nearly one thousand years later. | | | In 399 Plato witnessed the trial and execution of Socrates at the hands of the restored Athenian democracy, under charges of corrupting the youth, introducing new gods to the city, atheism, and unusual religious practices. |

| | Plato - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Plato founded one of the earliest known organized schools in Western civilization when he was 40 years old on a plot of land in the Grove of Academe. | | | (See Plato's allegory of the cave.) We can imagine everything in the universe represented on a line of increasing reality; it is divided once in the middle, and then once again in each of the resulting parts. | | | The ostensible mise-en-scene of a dialogue distances both Plato and a given reader from the philosophy being discussed; one can choose between at least two options of perception: either to participate in the dialogues, in the ideas being discussed, or choose to see the content as expressive of the personalities contained within the work. |

| | Plato |
| | Plato, a philodorian, it is believed, lectured extensively at the Academy; but he also wrote on many philosophical issues, and his presence survives through his written philosophical/dramatic compositions, preserved in manuscripts recovered and edited in many editions in many countries since the birth of the Humanist movement. | | | In fact, Plato's original writings were essentially lost to western civilization until their reintroduction in the twelfth century through the Persian and Arab scholars who not only maintained the original Greek texts of the ancients, but expanded them by writing extensive commentaries and interpretations on Plato's and Aristotle 's works (see Al-Farabi, Avicenna, Averroes). | | | All the known dialogues of Plato survive; modern-day standard editions of his oeuvre in addition generally contain dialogues considered by the consensus of scholars either suspect (e.g., Alcibiades, Clitophon) or probably spurious (such as Demodocus, or the Second Alcibiades). |

| | An objection like this was first formulated by Plato in his dialogue, the Theatetus (Stephanus 170e ff.). | | | It is an interpretation of Protagoras' doctrine that Plato discusses in his Theatetus (Stephanus 152a ff.), a dialogue which I mentioned in an earlier note. | | | (There was a famous edition of Plato's dialogue edited by a man whose Latin name was "Stephanus." Almost all translations of Plato give the Stephanus pagination in the margin, so that you can locate the same passage in any of them.) |

| | For instance, I became intrigued by the fact that the text of Plato, whether in the original Greek or in translation, is cited according to the "Stephanus" reference; I was also struck by the fact that few students of the classics knew what "Stephanus" referred to. | | | After some easy research I discovered that the "Stephanus" numbers go back to a sixteenth-century edition of Plato published in 1578 by the humanist printer Henri Estienne, also known under the Graeco-Latinized form of his name, Henricus Stephanus. | | | Providing the universal system of reference to Plato was merely one of many important contributions to western culture made by the Estiennes: for instance, Henri Estienne's father, Robert Estienne, is responsible for the division of the text of the Bible into the numbered verses universally followed today. |

| | PLATO courseware was fairly extensive, covering a full range of high-school and college courses, as well as topics such as reading skills, family planning, Lamaze training and home budgeting. | | | The largest PLATO installation in South Africa during the early 1980s was at the University of the Western Cape, which served a "coloured" population, and at one time had hundreds of PLATO IV terminals all connected by leased data lines back to Johannesburg. | | | PLATO ran for many years at the U of I, but CDC President William Norris' plans to make it a major force in the computing world and a keystone of corporate social responsibility failed. |

| | The Unwritten Doctrines, Plato's Answer to Speusippus |
| | Speusippus could say against Plato that he had not answered the Third Man, and Plato could say against Speusippus that his system was not easily derivable from the most fundamental principles. | | | The more plausible view, therefore, is that Speusippus did accept the Third Man, that Plato published it because he felt the need to at least acknowledge it, and that he refrained from publishing Speusippus' objection relating to the method of division because he felt it to be of lesser importance. | | | To recapitulate, Speusippus scored a point against Plato since Plato could not effectively answer the Third Man. But Plato scored a point against Speusippus since Plato's system, but not Speusippus', could be cogently derived from the most basic principles of reality. |

| | Viacheslav Koudriavtsev's Hypothesis on Plato's Atlantis |
| | Plato's Critias, however, while giving in minute detail the dimensions of the plain adjoining the city, and giving the length of the canal encircling it, says nothing of the dimensions of the island as such, except that it was "larger than Asia and Libya combined". | | | In Plato's original the phrase kata de meson is used, which means "around the middle", "approximately in the middle", with the word meson from mesos usually implying the middle of a linear segment, while for the notion of "centre" another word exists. | | | Thus, some of them contend that none other than the island of Crete is Plato's Atlantis, claiming also that Greeks used the name of the Pillars of Hercules, mentioned by Plato, not for what is now called the Strait of Gibraltar, but for some rocks which were situated on the way from Athens to Crete. |

| | A paper recently appeared in this Journal [1] which proposed that the hook-like shadow recorded on the floor of the lunar crater Plato by Wilkins and Moore on 1952 April 3, [2, 3], is projected by a complex and elongated hill lying on Platos floor, at the foot of its south wall. | | | Each one was scanned and digitally converted to obtain the contour of: the crater rim, the hook-like shadow, the shadow cast on Platos floor by its east wall, the shadows of a few features lying on Platos east wall and the shadows of a few features lying outside Platos wall. | | | Features on Platos floor are similar, in particular the "hook", while those outside the crater are crudely different, revealing that the authors were concerned with few features on the floor. |
