  1. Two Approaches to Foundations in Greek Mathematics: Apollonius and Geminus.Fabio Acerbi - 2010 - Science in Context 23 (2):151-186.

The main historiographical result of this paper is to show thatthere wasa well-establishedmathematicalfield of discourse in “foundations of (...)

  • On The Text Of Theophrastus Fr. 717 Fortenbaugh.Massimo Raffa - 2014 - Classical Quarterly 64 (1):409-410.
    The overall sense is clear enough: the Pythagoreans called the fourth συλλαβή, the fifth δι' ὀξειᾶν and the octave ἁρμονία. We are also told that the octave is a σύστημα, which is a musical structure resulting from an acceptable combination of two or more smaller intervals – in this case, of a fourth and a fifth. But the received text appears problematic: in particular, the double accusative τὴν δὲ διὰ πασῶν … ἁρμονίαν occurring in connection with the dative τῷ συστήματι (...)

  • An Errant Fragment of Theophrastus.H. B. Gottschalk - 1992 - Classical Quarterly 42 (02):529-533.
    There are a number of fragments attributed to Theophrastus, as well as titles in Diogenes Laertius' catalogue of his writings , of which it is uncertain whether they should be placed among his logical or rhetorical works. In this note I want to give my reasons for excluding one of them from my forthcoming edition of his logical fragments. It is not my intention here to discuss all the questions it raises; I hope to come back to them in a (...)
