In their respective area of specialization, all contributors offer stimulating approaches to questions of historical and historiographical 'revolutions' and 'continuity'. Taken together, they provide a powerful lens for evaluating the applicability of Thomas Kuhn's ideas on 'scientific revolutions' to the discipline of ancient Greek mathematics. Besides the latest historiographical studies on 'geometrical algebra' and 'premodern algebra', the reader will find here some papers which offer new insights into the controversial relationship between Greek and pre-Hellenic mathematical practices. Some other contributions place emphasis on the other edge of the historical spectrum, by exploring historical lines of 'continuity' between ancient Greek, Byzantine and post-Hellenic mathematics. The terminology employed by Greek mathematicians, along with various non-textual and material elements, is another topic which some of the essays in the volume explore. Finally, the last three articles focus on a traditionally rich source on ancient Greek mathematics; namely the works of Plato and Aristotle.Mathematics, GreekGeometryHistoryElectronic books.Mathematics, Greek.GeometryHistory.510.938Sialaros MichalisMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910466391103321Revolutions and continuity in Greek mathematics2460139UNINA01251nam0 22002651i 450 UON0010697920231205102619.95520020107d1983 |0itac50 baitaIT|||| 1||||Studi DanteschiFernando FigurelliNapoliIstituto Universitario orientale1983377 p.24 cmDono Prof. FloresIT-UONSI T 3DANTE5015001UON000876862001 Pubblicazioni della Sezione Romanza dell'I.U.O.
