Nebula4.3‚ September 2007 In Search of a Remedial Philosophy: A Consecutive Study of Hafez and Goethe. By Ismail Baroudy Abstract Despite a sharp gap historically segregating Hafez and Goethe from each other‚ the researcher justifiably finds them to merit sharing common spiritual‚ social‚ cultural and literary characteristics. This advocacy mainly stems from the fact that the former (Hafez) exercised an unfathomable strand of multidimensional impact on the latter (Goethe). Admittedly‚ based on findings

On the other hand‚ although the rationalists generally attempt to use deduction and reduce the idea of human understanding to a basic fundamental principle‚ in Leibniz case what you end up with are complex ideas beyond our understanding that cannot be explained by sensation or any external source and therefore must be innate. As Leibniz states‚ “…primitive ideas are those whose possibility is indemonstrable‚ and which are in truth nothing else than the attributes of God (Kramnick 189).” Both of

History of Calculus The history of calculus falls into several distinct time periods‚ most notably the ancient‚ medieval‚ and modern periods. The ancient period introduced some of the ideas of integral calculus‚ but does not seem to have developed these ideas in a rigorous or systematic way. Calculating volumes and areas‚ the basic function of integral calculus‚ can be traced back to the Egyptian Moscow papyrus (c. 1800 BC)‚ in which an Egyptian successfully calculated the volume of a pyramidal

with this much intelligence. She simply neglected that statement and continued her amazing work‚ her position as a scientist came to an end with her latest work‚ “The Institutions of Physics‚” a book about German mathematician and philosopher Gottfried Leibniz. In 1666‚ Marie Meurdrac published book “Chemistry Simplified for Women”. The book attempts to prove that a woman’s knowledge was not less than a man’s. Meurdrac’s purpose of the book was to convince women to present their knowledge against men

2.2.5 Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Liebniz adds some clarification to Descartes argument in an attempt to strengthen it‚ he argue that’s Descartes has not asserted how coherent the idea of a “perfect being” is‚ Leibniz argues that unless this point is demonstrated then overall argument fails. In order to prevent this Leibniz attempts to analyze what perfection actually means‚ he concludes that this is an impossible task and concludes that it’s impossible to demonstrate all perfections are incompatible

Sir Isaac Newton I am Sir Isaac Newton. I am a mathematician and physicist‚ and one of the foremost scientific intellects of all time. I was born at Woolsthorpe‚ near Grantham in Lincolnshire‚ in 1642. I entered Cambridge University in 1661; then was elected at Fellow of Trinity College in 1667‚ then Lucasian Professor of Mathematics in 1669. I remained at the university‚ lecturing in most years‚ until 1696. Of these Cambridge years‚ in which I was at the height of my creative power‚ I singled out

Unlike geometry‚ algebra was not developed in Europe. Algebra was actually discovered (or developed) in the Arab countries along side geometry. Many mathematicians worked and developed the system of math to be known as the algebra of today. European countries did not obtain information on algebra until relatively later years of the 12th century. After algebra was discovered in Europe‚ mathematicians put the information to use in very remarkable ways. Also‚ algebraic and geometric ways of thinking

would then presumably be all good‚ all-knowing‚ and all-powerful‚ and therefore would use his/her powers to stop evil from being a part of our world all together (Leibniz 261). Gottfried Leibniz addresses this "problem of evil" in his Theodicy by offering a scenario in which both a Christian God and evil can plausibly coexist. As Leibniz tries to validate God’s existence‚ he is forced to rely upon certain defining characteristic from which we have come to associate with the Christian God. One such

the basis for binary code‚ was discovered by Gottfried Leibniz in 1679 and appears in his article Explication de l’Arithmétique Binaire. The full title is translated into English as the "Explanation of the binary arithmetic"‚ which uses only the characters 1 and 0‚ with some remarks on its usefulness‚ and on the light it throws on the ancient Chinese figures of Fu Xi."[1] (1703). Leibniz’s system uses 0 and 1‚ like the modern binary numeral system. Leibniz encountered the I Ching through French Jesuit

I personally think that Isaac Newton is without a doubt‚ a hero. He is a hero because of his scientific achievements and life events. He found a way to split white light and find its color contents‚ he discovered then extended his three laws of motion that frame the world of physics‚ and for crying out loud‚ the man invented calculus. Not just that‚ these examples aren’t even including all of his very many scientific achievements‚ inventions‚ or founds. For starters‚ Isaac Newton’s theory of “fluxions”
